Bella Vista Elementary's Educational Technology Specialist, Sallie Warnecke sent this link via email, perhaps others have received it too. The article is worth reading. It sure got the wheels turning in my head. Ebooks are changing how we read books and the future of libraries' offerings. In my opinion, ebooks are the trend and have their place but I hope they will not
completely replace physical books. There is something bonding and identifying with a book when holding it and turning its pages as it is read.
What is your opinion? It would be interesting to hear other Media Specialists opinions on ebooks and the future of libraries, feel free to comment if you would like.
From Sally Warnecke:
Is this the library of our kids' future?
Texas set to open the first completely digital public library later
this month! I find this to be very thought-provoking…and look, they're
all macs! :)
I think we are still a long ways off from getting rid of print.
