Cloud Computing is a wonderful way to keep and store massive amounts of informaiton without maintaining your own server since you are using the facilities of another. It also enables users to connect with many others. For libraries there are many implications - both good and bad. Cloud computing saves school districts money since they don't have to purchase and maintain their own servers. However, it could also mean that the school district and/or library has less control over the information shared with that server. Another concern is the ability for others outside the district making contact with students. This can pose a safety concern for the school system.
