商品簡介
Cloud computing, in which data is centrally stored, is introduced as enabling libraries to focus on their mission and services rather than on peripheral technical issues. In this Library and Information Technology Association guide, Corrado (library technology, Binghamton U., New York ) and Moulaison (information science and learning technologies, U. of Missouri) compile 20 chapters for librarians and computer professionals working in libraries on how cloud computing relates to their environment. Contributors discuss general issues, technologies, and case studies of library usage of cloud computing. Illustrations feature service sign-in forms, data flows, and cost comparisons of cloud platforms. Annotation c2011 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
