Hospital digital library based on cloud computing

Abstract

Cloud computing has been applied in domestic and foreign digital library research. This paper analyzed the disadvantage of hospital digital library construction in our county. A better construction mode of hospital digital library based on cloud computing is proposed; we design an architecture of hospital digital library based on cloud computing, the steps of system implementation are introduced. The prototype shows that the cloud computing can realize the resource sharing and reduce the construction cost, meanwhile, it can satisfy the needs of medical staff in most small and middle-sized hospital for digital library.
