Method 3 Cloud computing

Cloud computing – I’m concerned about privacy issues also. Why not just store sensitive files locally? One vendor can buy out another vendor easily – we see that all the time in the library world. Prices and terms change.

My library already uses the Cloud and pays for it – hosted services to maintain data. Where does the IT department fit in with all of this?

The Library also uses Google Docs as part of a consortium of ILS users. We share our opinions about proposed ILS enhancements and this seems to work well.
