Library's Move from Print to Digital Causes an Outcry

Consumer Attitudes



In the digital age, more and more libraries are beginning to move from purchasing print books to purchasing digital copies, but this change is not happily accepted by all. The digital generation of the library’s population represent a sizable portion of the 1.5 billion annual library visitors, and prefer physical books for serious reading. There have even been several protests against e-books at several libraries across the country.
