Library social institutions are the satellites of virtual research teams and have to implement information and communication support of scientific researches. The use of cloud managers by academic libraries is proposed as platforms to facilitate remote collaborative work of the participants of the virtual research teams. The research of number of free cloud managers and their capabilities was held. The most successful cloud manager for supporting the scientific work of virtual research teams was selected by using hierarchy analysis method.Index Terms-Scientific library, virtual research teams, cloud manager, cloud storage, remote service, benchmarking method, hierarchy analysis method, method of expert estimation, method of pairwise comparisons, alternative weight.
