Discussion
Assertion (A) : Many of the big libraries are going for cloud computing.
Reason (R) : Cloud computing has helped them to avoid locally hosting and operating multiple servers.
Answer: A
The answer is Both (A) and (R) are true.
The Assertion is true: many large libraries have moved their library systems, discovery services and repositories to cloud-hosted platforms, OCLC's WorldShare and Ex Libris Alma being common examples.
The Reason is also true, and it is the main attraction of the cloud: the vendor hosts and runs the servers, so the library no longer has to buy, house, power, patch and back up several servers of its own.
Since both statements are true, the options calling either of them false are wrong. (This code set has no separate option about whether R explains A.)
