Are Books Becoming Extinct? - Paperback

by David M. Haugen (Editor), Susan Musser (Editor)

This volume offers readers a variety of articles that examine the future of print books. Readers will explore the impact of digital printing on book publishing, the increasing role of e-books and the needs of e-book readers and users, the overall importance of books in the digital age, and the responses of publishers and librarians to e-publishing. The final essay by Ben Ehrenreich offers food for thought, that books have always survived predictions of their demise.
