| Abstract [eng] |
The article actualizes electronic information services provided by a library. In order to better meet the increased needs of the readers, we propose to use the Cloud Computing technologies. These technological solutions facilitate the libraries’ “survival” issues and make it possible to offer the next-generation e-services – virtual digital reading rooms. The paper discusses changes of the readers’ information needs, the identified problems and challenges of libraries. The author models the flowchart of the modern library in the Community Cloud by applying the IaaS and SaaS Cloud Computing services. The proposed library structure provides a virtual space as desktop, which is identified as a virtual digital reading room whose features and options for users are discussed. Lent control of digital editions is offered by the 3M Cloud Library program which is tested in the world practice. According to the proposed scheme, the modeled virtual Cloud Library effectively meets consumers’ needs and has become a library as a third place online. |
