The main purpose of public libraries is to provide books, and they should not waste their limited resources and space on providing expensive hi-tech media such as computer software, videos and DVDs.
To what extent do you agree or disagree with this statement?
A library is a place that shelves many books a reader can read or borrow. Nevertheless, technological advancement and its tremendous effects on the way we learn new things and share information have redefined the concept of a library in recent days. Therefore, digital contents and technological facilities are widely used in public libraries all around the world and I disagree with the notion that these amenities are a waste of resource or space for a library.
Unsupportive people of high-tech libraries often argue that they distract readers and costs more money. I, however, believe that libraries with modern facilities are far more useful to readers and allow the librarian to manage its collection in a more organised fashion. multimedia resources offer readers a dynamic combination of images, sounds, videos and virtual tours. Thus, listening to a famous historical speech or taking a virtual tour of the Colosseum is far more interactive and exciting than just reading about them. Moreover, multimedia facilities and DVSs in a library may initially seem expensive, but they keep valuable resources for a longer time and contain important information for future research and reference. To cite an example, a single DVD can store the entire volume of Encyclopedia Britannica which would otherwise occupy a large shelf of a library
Interestingly, a public library can actually save money and space and attract more readers with the use of technology and interactive contents. When they have computers and library management software, they barely need many staff members. Besides, it takes the great effort to protect books from moisture, fire and human damages, but digital contents can easily be copied and preserved for as many years as we want. As for attracting young generations, a high-tech library is more successful.
In conclusion, the transformation of public libraries has made them more beneficial to readers and researchers as they now work as centres for interactive learning and knowledge sharing. it is expected that traditional libraries would include digital and modern facilities to enhance human knowledge and experience.
