Can E-Books and Libraries Coexist? – Infographic

Can E-Books and Libraries Coexist? – Infographic | Professional development of Librarians | Scoop.it
From www.snid.eu - December 9, 2012 8:40 PM

But a recent Pew study found that even as sales of e-readers like Nook and Kindle grow swiftly, young people still frequent libraries more than you might think, and print books remain popular. Even the most plugged-in lit fans are not ready to abandon print as a dead medium. In fact, e-book readers consume more books annually, no matter the format."
