Roadmap to Success: Crafting an Effective Implementation Plan

Plan A : Library on Cloud is a platform designed to host a library system on virtual servers. These virtual servers utilize computing resources from extensive networks of physical servers. This solution is suitable for all libraries and offers significant cost savings. The implementation of cloud computing technology allows libraries to pay incrementally, only for the resources they utilize. Moreover, it provides ease of installation and maintenance as there are no concerns about server updates or computing issues.

OR

Plan B : Library on Your Network – hosts and manages a library system on physical servers within your network. This option is suitable for libraries with collections exceeding 50,000 items.

OR

Plan C : A Library Consortium aims to share resources, knowledge, technology, and skills.
