There has been much written about Cloud Computing in recent months, and this presentation is a good resource to add to the mix; looking at what advantages, or disadvantages, can be expected for a library in the Cloud (I tweeted this presentation over the weekend but, after re-reading it, thought it worthy of a post here); Libraries and the Cloud I found the following statements struck a chord that I’ve already emailed them to a colleague who works in a library, along with the presentation; “The days of each library operating its own local servers have largely passed. This approach rarely represents the best use of library space and personnel.”
And perhaps the biggest quote, which can be applied to many elements of higher education, not just the library; “The biggest cultural component is that organisations have to become more willing to use platforms,. technology, and services that they don’t directly control.” Are you involved in any form of Cloud Computing?

Born to Learn. Well, that’s what I’ve been told – mostly, I’m chasing down every minute of the day just to complete stuff: work, get to work, drive home, spend quality time with my family, go to the gym, work some more, watch one or five of the 18 TV shows I DVR, sleep when I can… repeat.
And if anything varies outside that routine, it better be interesting, or frankly, I forget I’m even doing it. Sometimes, I have a small break where I go to the store in the middle of the day for something specific and there’s loads of people just leisurely strolling around, simply window shopping, and I think – what I wouldn’t give to have that kind of time. But the truth is, we all have the same 24 hours in a day. So why bring this up? Ok, where to start? Let’s say you wait until TechEd to get started. So what do you have to lose – time?

Carleton Watkins captured this view of Yosemite’s Mirror Lake while most of the country was engaged in the Civil War. National parks are among the nation’s most cherished natural resources. The National Park Service, a bureau of the U.S. Department of Interior, was created by an act of Congress. A century after its founding, the National Park Service overseas more than 400 sites, in every U.S. state and territory. One of these sites is California’s Yosemite National Park. Subsequent efforts by landscape designer Frederick Law Olmsted and naturalist John Muir resulted in Yosemite becoming a national park in 1890—decades before the establishment of the National Park Service. The Library’s website contains thousands of images of the national parks, including more than 100 views of the Yosemite area by Watkins.
