Jorge Cauz, President of Encyclopaedia Britannica Wrote its Killing Story..
Harvard Business Review published in the March, 2013 issue, a write up of Jorge Cauz, President of Encyclopaedia Britannica about its death story.

Truly in digital age sticking to the traditional mode will pull us back only.

Libraries as we know it, can also think this way.
