We read comics online.

I guess not much is happening for Stantis to address.

Isn’t he excited for The Reinstatement on Friday?

Doesn’t he have his tickets to the Reinstatement Ball?

Once you buy a physical book, you own it, it’s yours to keep and share if you want. You can’t say the same about an ebook.

You also don’t need to plug in an acoustic guitar.

But you can increase the print size on electronics.

A physical book is nice – I have about 40 shelves – but I can also carry a few hundred books in my pocket now. And the battery on a Kindle lasts for a VERY long time.

eBooks are superior for one reason, backlighting. I love being able to easily read my eBook in low light conditions. I can’t say the same for a physical book.

Actual books can become more than just paper and words.. I have a first edition of The Hitchhikers Guide To Galaxy, signed by Douglas Adams. Its one of my most treasured items, you can’t have that kind of connection with an ebook. You can enjoy it or even love it, but it never can become a treasured item

Wonder what Librarian4Hire has to contribute today.

Books are important, they are a legacy of who we are, what we believed, they give us a small sense of immortality. E Books will just melt into the ether, nothing at all, poof, not even dust.

And the smell!!! Oof that’s good stuff!

Governor Cuomo (D) is stepping down. Note that if he was Republican he would not.
