 What would happen if public libraries only had ebooks?
ErrantX: The other issue is that some people (like ME :D) love real books.The Library is like a dark, exciting, unexplored jungle of literature that I want to discover. That's not an inconvenience - that is a delight! It is what libraries do best.E-books are great too obviously - but I can get them online. E-books are easy (as you say) putting them in libraries makes it less easy so there's little point IMO.Also you talk about limiting E-books by how many "copies" can be taken out. That seems silly IMO because that is the model a library uses due the limitation of physical copies. Why bother with that limitation with E-books. If you cant get it at the library then there are probably 101 other places to download it!The other major issue you face is what do you "stock" in the library. Only those books with physical copies? and if not what is the criteria for inclusion?I just dont see how it would work out :P
