Library as a Service... the Next Big Thing?
Jinfo Article

By James Mullan
Abstract
SaaS, PaaS, IaaS, and CaaS... you would be forgiven for not knowing what all of these acronyms mean given that it seems barely a week passes without a new one being introduced. The majority of these terms relate to services available in the cloud and now a new option has been introduced which may well have a significant impact on the work undertaken by libraries and library teams. Library as a Service (LaaS) was recently launched by LAC Group, powered by Manzama for client intelligence.
