The Cloud Above the Clouds: Ensuring End User Happiness (a document delivery case study)

Preview:

DESCRIPTION

Despite being overhyped, misappropriated and misunderstood, cloud computing is changing everything from library information services to personal computing. As many technology suppliers peddle their wares to you and tout the attractiveness of “being in the cloud,” a critical part of the discussion is missing – ensuring end user happiness. This presentation (from the Special Libraries Association 2012 Annual Conference) focuses on how information management professionals can evaluate the impact of cloud-based solutions on end user satisfaction and provides a (document delivery) case study for building a ‘cloud above the clouds’ to ensure visibility into end users’ interactions with suppliers.
