[Web4lib] Software as a service and libraries

[Delos Reyes, Lea (IRRI)]

Hello everyone,

 

Has there any library out there that has implemented a web-based hosted
library management or software as a service? What are the pros and cons?
and is this a good option for libraries?

 

Thank you in advance.

 

Regards,

Lea
