IT strategy cloud computing (Sept 2010)

• Remove technical, structural, organisational and legal barriers

• data integrity and security

• service availability

• service interoperability

• legal issues / contract templates

• Increase public acceptance of cloud based solutions

• Leverage economic potential, especially for the public sector and smaller and medium-sized businesses

Libraries and Cloud ComputingLibraries and Cloud Computing

• Libraries are doing more than ever

• Libraries are changing rapidly

• Cost & time requirements are exploding

• Cloud computing has helped other industries


Libraries have been building “cloud” services for 40 years (cataloging, resource sharing, online reference…)


Cloud based library services could

bring the power of library cooperation to core library management

Libraries will be freed to focus on innovation

A Service PlatformA Service Platform

With such an architecture – discoverable services and a platform concept –, can libraries develop their own custom applications for library management activities.

In addition, they can expose and share those applications as Web services on the platform for other libraries to use.

They can innovate collectively.

What Is the Platform?What Is the Platform?

• From a practical standpoint, the Platform offers:

• A “toolbox” for developers that want to use OCLC services and data to build new or enhance existing applications

• An “App Gallery”, through which libraries can easily share apps created by the community

• App Store, plug-ins, etc.

• Support for collaboration and cooperation within the library community

“I want to…”“I want to…”

I want to create an app that combines

my library’s activity with info about titles

on the NY Times bestseller list.

“I want to build an app…”“I want to build an app…”

Feed into selection and acquisition decision-making…Trends within the library

Trends from outside of the library realm…

“I begin by…”“I begin by…”

Searching for documentation and other information

necessary to begin writing my app.

“Next I…”“Next I…”

Build my app in my local development environment…

And upload the appto the Platform.

// build request$listURL =

'http://api.nytimes.com/svc/books/v2/lists/' . $listname . '.xml';

$listURL = $listURL . '?api-key=' . $NYT_API ;

// go get the XML$xml =

simplexml_load_file($listURL);$bookCount = count($xml-

>xpath('//results/book'));if ($bookCount > 0) {

$list_title = $xml->results->book[0]->list_name;

$list_date = $xml->results->book[0]->published_date;

“And then I share the app…”“And then I share the app…”

• Options to contribute apps to a shared App Gallery for use by other libraries

• Share innovative solutions with peers

• OCLC is working on an incentive model for sharing local development with the Platform community

“I want to…”“I want to…”

As an acquisitions librarian, I want to find tools that will

help me to better understand and react to the interests

of my library community.

Building on the Developer NetworkBuilding on the Developer Network

• The library development community is already doing some of this work with OCLC services

Building on the Developer NetworkBuilding on the Developer Network

• Coupling “community” tools with “technology/data” tools creates new opportunities for innovation

From going it alone…

To working as a community to solve library problems

The cloud concept leads to a platform and apps concept

for library management services

and to collective innovation.
