Print Vs Digital books

 Do you think print books will be replaced by the digital books?



No. Print books provide us various facilities. We can read a book anywhere anytime at remote places too. It may be on travelling, before sleeping, relaxing at afternoon sitting leisurely in a reclined chair. The other  people don't bother with that. Our minds always ready to search for new knowledge, new taste, new place. Till today print books are the main source for fulfilling the foods of our mind. Print books are permanent resources to make an archive as well as to restore the history of mankind.

Digital books are easy to handle. We can carry millions of books through an android mobile. But when we want to read internet  is essential. Electronic devices are chargiable. So it may be another difficulty to read a digital book for a long time. We can read the digital books through Kindle also. The free books of kindle may not be satisfied our  requirements. We have to buy individually the required book here. Of course there is an opportunity for smart readers that the kindle price is lower than print book .

A library can help the users with digital resources. The online books and journals subscription is one of the most important dimension of modern libraries. Users can search their needs through free websites also. 

Digital devices release toxic gases. Therefore we have to conscious about using books through physical format or digital mode.

We have to minimize screen time to get rid of sleepless night. Reading a book concentrates our mind. Using a device deflection begins.

The Print format can't be replaced by the digital one. It is the transformation of one format to another. People can avail both the  facilities and feel free to use anywhere anytime.
