Libraries are Here to Stay

I overheard somebody says the other day that libraries are going to be obsolete in our near future. They said because of “…just google it..”. Their point was that since the ease of the internet, libraries are becoming irrelevant.

Libraries have adapted with the times of technology and are actually thriving. Implementing programs such as incorporating mobile apps. The recent years of the Pokemon craze proved to provide my local library with a useful strategy to draw in people.

Also, libraries have partnered up with different parent-child calendar reading programs, school reading programs, and neighborhood initiatives in low-income areas. Our library posts in the newspaper and housing authority of the local low-income housing projects. They have seen the light and the light is diversify. The fact that they offer free wifi doesn’t hurt either.
