Abstract

Cloud computing technology (ICT) come up as a boon for libraries and is offering various opportunities and services for libraries to connect their services with clouds. ICT have forced the libraries and librarians to change in its functioning processing of the information retrieval system. In this digital era, libraries are moving in advanced level called cloud computing. In cloud computing, the libraries not required the software, operating system and applications in the limits, which will be provided by service provider. Cloud computing offers a new importance in computing, it changes how we invent, develop, scale, update, maintain and pay for applications and infrastructure on which they are run. Cloud computing is broken down into three divisions: (1) application, (2) storage, and (3) connectivity. Each division serves a different purpose and offers different products for business, separately around the world. In this study, detail of the cloud computing origin, different types, security, issues and challenges in library science are discussed.
