Mandarin’s Web hosting service provides fast and reliable Internet access to a library’s collection, relieving the library of database management responsibilities and ensuring patrons uninterrupted access to the system. This is a cost-effective solution for libraries that do not have the budget, equipment, or bandwidth to host Oasis.
With Mandarin’s Web hosting, a library’s Oasis system is served by the latest and most reliable servers. Equipment is protected by a secure firewall and connected to users via two T1 lines. Mandarin’s highly qualified technical staff monitors and maintains the system.
Benefits include:
Patrons can access the library collection 24 hours a day, seven days a week from any computer with an Internet connection.
Mandarin’s technical staff performs all updates, as well as server and connectivity maintenance.
The amount of Internet traffic on the library’s network is reduced, eliminating the inconvenience of slower response time.
The library does not incur the expense of Web servers, T1 lines, or support staff for Oasis.
