Cloudy library, clear skies
This poster will present the cloud technologies which libraries use or could use to improve their services and will also show the advantages and drawbacks of such technologies. Cloud technologies have offered some amazing benefits in contrast to standard dedicated hardware models and they provide many opportunities for libraries to better their management and to reach their patrons on the Web. This poster will also compare the use of cloud technologies in libraries in contrast to the available ones, thus also pointing out which technologies are being left out by libraries and which ones could be used to a larger extent. In a world were storage space is becoming scarce and expensive, cloud storage has become a trendy alternative to store documents, files and folders easily and cheaply. One of the most prominent problems in libraries has also been lack of storage space, either for book collections or their own documents. As such, libraries have taken interest in implementing cloud storage technologies. Cloud storage can also be a very effective way to store books that libraries have already digitalized, such as the national heritage. It eliminates the need for a library to have its own servers, and with that reduces cost of digitalization itself. However, there are also drawbacks to cloud storage, such as concerns for privacy, security and data ownership.
