摘要：Cloud Computing is dominant mode of current and future of information and communication technologies. It is not beyond the realm of possibility that it would foment upheaval within libraries and information centers service-wise. The wide-reaching extent of these changes would envisage a new feature to libraries both in organization and service delivery. The present study, employing a descriptive analysis method, examines the concepts of cloud computing while laying the foundations for a cloud-based library as its corollary. While presented as a conceptual construct, the paper posits that the model can solve some of the issues such as digital right managements as well as copyright. Several models are offered and discussed with respect to applicability, missions, client group, financing as well as service blendals.
