I love to have an actual book in my hand when I am at home or in the library. However, when I travel, I find it cumbersome to carry multiple books with me. Therefore, I use my tablet and Kindle app with my e-books.
While at work in a school library, I find that students, while living in a digital age, still prefer the physical book as well. When doing research, though, the students and I prefer online journals and periodicals. It seems a bit contradictory, I know. I love having the option of media. I love the technology.
What are your thoughts on books versus e-books?

Important of print books never be less. As other countries preserve public library with traditional system. E-books have available to less people and should have technology to use. It is Beneficial to researcher, academician more not the common public,

Regarding this topic, I want to quote of an eminent writer-cum-educationist of Assam, Dr. Birendra Nath Bhattacharyya, who said in a seminar organized by DLIS, Gauhati University in the year of 2012..... "You can touch the book, you can feel the book,You can smell the aroma of the book... you can even sleep by placing the book on your lap... But You can not do all these things with your computer or laptop or etc. etc......"
