Building and Developmentof Cloud Computing Services for Library Management System and Institutional Repository in University Libraries In Nigeria

Library management system software’s (LMS Koha) and Institutional repositories (IR Dspace) are one of the fastest growing mediums of accessing digital information resources in Academic Libraries today, considering their potential in intellectual out visibility and accessibility online in remote location, feature open access with flexibility to run, build, design,distribute and redesign to a specific need of the University library, they are on cloud service avoiding the risk of losing once data/file or thinking of minimizing space. Naturally libraries without much financial resources need a less cost effective way to automate their services. Free/Open source software are revolutionary concept among computer programmers and users. To a certain extent free/open source solutions could provide an alternative solution to costly commercial application software’s. This study is to building and development cloud computing service for library management system and institutional repository in the University libraries inNigeria and have successfully built and develop LibLimekoha and Dspace institutional repository.
