ADOPTION AND IMPACT OF CLOUD COMPUTING IN LIBRARIES: BENEFITS, CHALLENGES, AND FUTURE DIRECTIONS
(2025) Karthika S
Cloud computing has significantly transformed how libraries manage resources, offering enhanced flexibility, cost-efficiency, and scalability. This study examines the adoption of cloud computing services in libraries, evaluating their benefits, challenges, and overall impact on library operations. A survey of 125 library professionals was conducted to assess familiarity with cloud computing models (IaaS, PaaS, SaaS) and deployment strategies (Public, Private, Hybrid). The research also explores the use of cloud-based tools in libraries, including email services, data collection tools, and collaboration platforms. The demographic data from the survey includes gender distribution, age groups, and educational qualifications, with most respondents holding M.L.I.Sc or Ph.D. degrees. The findings reveal a strong adoption of cloud services, especially for email, storage, and collaboration, with most respondents highlighting benefits like cost savings, scalability, and accessibility. However, challenges such as data security, vendor lock-in, and technical expertise barriers were also identified. The study concludes that while cloud computing offers substantial benefits, continuous training, support, and a thorough evaluation of security and vendor-related issues are essential. This research offers valuable insights into the current state of cloud computing adoption in libraries and suggests strategies for overcoming obstacles to successful implementation.
