is the internet a replacement to the library?

I think that the internet is a big replacement for libraries now. I know that teachers usually try to add a required physical book for reference for assignments though so that keeps library use up.

the net is a huge help. there a lot of free stuff one can use in teaching. its a quick way to update onself. i too like the net. but viruses do scare me a lot.

Yeah these days it is quite easy to search for all teh information on the web instead of going to a public library where you might not able to get that kind of info esp. latest news, articles, current affairs. I like to surf the net for all info it's fast, easy and quick to get relevant information.

yes and definitely much better than the library.. you can search about everything online and is really unlimited... i go online whenever i want to do my research...

Very difficult to say, I spend more time on the net now than with actual books, because I find the search feature easier on the net. With books you have to look through many index to find a particular article, or just read randomly. With the net I decide what I want, search and read specific articles only.

Oh I just love to be able to go in and check out all the books. I like being able to touch the books. I can't do that on the net.

yeah.i agrre with you .i am also depend on internet now to research than library.i will visit library to read novels of my local language but to know anything new i will always research on internet.

I think most people will prefer internet. It is flexible and always have sth new and unexpected.I love the feeling
