Remote Servers at Large Academics

["Byron C. Mayes" <bcmayes at temple dot edu>]

Greetings,

I've checked the archives and recent discussions about ILS servers remote from
the Library. Most of those replying seem to be public library systems, smaller
colleges, and consortia. 

I'm interested in getting an idea of what the breakdown is in large academic
systems. I'm primarily interested in two questions:

1) Where is your production ILS server located?

2) Regardless of the answer to 1), what is the division of labor between Library
Systems and University IT -- specifically, who does what -- with regards to
system administration and maintenance (not including database management)?

Obviously the key to any arrangement working is a good relationship between the
Library and Univ IT (however that's defined at one's institution), so I'm not
really asking pros and cons of either arrangement. I just want to have a picture
of what others are doing.

Thanks,
Byron
