    The Boston Globe today had an article about a prestigious prep school removing books from its library. http://www.boston.com/news/local/massachusetts/articles/2009/09/04/a_library_without_the_books/
    I, for one, hope that libraries AND printed books endure!

    Probably not, at least until bandwidth, computers, and kindles are free.
