We're living in a era where everything is already digital or about to become in couple of years, everyone wants to be onboard on this digital lifestyle
When it comes to doing research people prefer internet and read thesis, books published by authors or professors on the internet
I rarely have seen anyone going to library at my side of the world anymore because libraries are stored in books but honestly there's no such thing better than library because of many reasons and let's talk about who need libraries especially in this era.
Oh you've internet, who needs libraries? We can browse every book in one go but what happens in real life when electricity is gone? Like those power outages every once in a while makes You switch to the candles? Or the backup? Right.
Same is the case with all these libraries around the city, those books have knowledge that's worth a lot more than this digitalisation
Not everyone have access to the internet so they go and read books in the library, the one who are keen to learn and curious to know more about our past, future are all found in libraries.
One Way to keep people literate
Those nations who have built libraries for public are successful because their people are educated and informed about things
Meanwhile in countries like mine I hardly find anyone who can tell me the location of the nearby library
Mostly libraries are in school/colleges or universities but it should be for public too for those who are old, too young or of any age could just go sit there and read books
We don't have that much people who crave about reading books anymore, not on mobile phones or even libraries are like that graveyard abandoned by it's own people.
Making Habit to Read
When I'm married and have kids I'm gonna raise them like developing these little habits that matter, reading books is going to be one
Not in the forced way that most parents do but in a fun, playful way we can develop reading habits into our kids
Who can keep these libraries alive in the coming years, week.
No one wants their kids to read books through screens, right? There's no point of ruining your eyes
In fact i read books to avoid spending time on the mobile phone because I want my eyes to rest a little bit and learn something new from the book everyday.
Wrapping Up...
In the end libraries are here from centuries and it won't go just because world is digital now, libraries are going to evolve into something much more better
People will find better way to preserve those books like maybe storing all that data into Blockchain and whenever you want to read a book just print it out and read like the normal book
For me I'll always prefer reading physical books than the e-books cause the vibe and feel moving from one page to another and smell of book gives is something that's never possible through e-books.
I wonder what's your thoughts about it I'd love to know it in the comments.
