A firm with offices in Century City announced on April 3 the launch of the Library as a Service (LaaS) platform to provide library management solutions to corporations and law firms.

Introduced by LAC Group, the LaaS platform provides a series of on-site equivalent and cloud-based content delivery solutions for information and library management.

LaaS essentially helps corporations and law firms complement their respective in-house information acquisition with a third-party service.

“Organizational information management is undergoing a massive sea change,” LAC Group founder and CEO Deborah Schwarz stated. “On one hand, the availability of and access to data is at unprecedented levels. On the other hand, organizations are coming under increasing pressure to contain information related spending. Those that can flexibly respond to these pressures while leveraging the power of information will generate significant strategic advantages.”

LAC Group stated a key component of the LaaS platform is its “competitive intelligence engine by Manzama.

“Manzama is a listening platform that automatically scours the web for information and then analyzes and classifies this information for relevance and importance,” a statement issued by LAC Group stated, adding the engine delivers to its clients “curated, on-point information.”

Also included in the LaaS platform is the Knowledge Services Portal, integrated library solution (ILS) offerings, spend management consulting services, rights clearance services, cataloging and metadata services as well as a full suite of primary and secondary research offerings.

Schwarz founded LAC Group in 1986 to help companies and firms “enact best practices and solve library and archival challenges.”

Beyond Century City, the firm also has Southern California offices in Burbank and Thousand Oaks. Offices outside of California are in Boston, Chicago, Denver, New York, suburban Washington, D.C., and the United Kingdom.

Manzama was established in 2010 as a service offered to legal professionals.
