Exploration of the Building and Service Process of Library Cloud: Based on OCLC WMS

Abstract

Abstract:

Libraries are building the management platform for libraries services in the Cloud Computing environment, which is called Library Cloud. On the library cloud, users can access all kinds of resources and services through an Internet browser. The library cloud not only helps to improve the libraries’ efficiency
and save libraries’ IT cost, but also helps libraries to concentrate on creating their core services. This paper first analyzes the characteristics and the advantages of library cloud. Based on the library cloud which is called OCLC WMS, it introduces library cloud’s building principles and framework, and describes the service process for library cloud. It then points out the problems of its quality of services (QoS). It solves those QoS problems by Service Level Agreement (SLA). It is valuable for the library cloud’ research and development in our country.

Key words: OCLC, WMS, Cloud computing, Library cloud, Quality of services, Service level agreement
