Ann and John:

A digital library might be nice, but think about all the people who would be out of work if we did not have paper books.

Off hand, being an author, I think we are the only ones who would not be affected. Those who are printers, ink and paper manufactures, book sellers, and those who work for publishers would all be looking at the possibility of lost jobs. Right now, what we do not need are lost jobs.

In case you missed it. This had to happen sooner or later; it is now here. A 100% digital library. Absolutely no traditional books, stacks, card files, etc.
