I think that this article is a great starting point for some really great conversation about the future of the library. I think that the biggest takeaway from this article is that people/students learn in different ways. To have a 100% digital library will take away a form of learning (by reading a bound book) that others thrive on. Please post any of your thoughts.

I know that digital is taking over everything, but I'm not sure that all students would feel comfortable using kindles. I myself, am currently opposed to the idea. Until I actually try one out I suppose I should reserve judgment.
