The Loss of Books

I agree with both articles because Libraries and books are not what they use to be. I remember when i was in elementary it was mandatory having a library card for the purpose of getting good grades in class. Now a days thanks to technology  we do not need one. Now a days libraries are a thing of the past, even though you might a couple around people do not visit them as often as before, i cant even remember when was the last time i visited one. after tablets and phones became more personal people have bought rented the books through these devices because is more convenient and you can read it when ever or where ever you want. When i think of technology and books i think of it as a general topic, what i mean is thanks to technology again books are being brought to live action films such as Twilight, 50 shades of grey and many more, Some people including myself do not feel the need of reading the books if it has a film.SO i think in 20 years books wont exist whether is for school or entertainment they are also adapting with the advancement of technology just like we are. This advancement and adaptation is not good for publishers and authors because they are the most affected.
