How would you feel if you walked into your local public library and instead of hundreds of shelves laden with all kinds of exciting books, you encountered a modern interior that resembles an Apple store complete with aisles of computers and other electronic gadgets? That, is exactly the vision Nelson Wolff has for BiblioTech, a new kind of public library that is scheduled to open in San Antonio's Bexar County, in fall 2013.

    To be honest, I rather have books.

    This is strange because the library was "invented" to be a place for uh.. books? Even the synonym, athenaeum, suggests so (Athena, the goddess of wisdom, though that doesn't necessarily mean books). This kind of reminds me of Escape from Mr. Lemoncello's Library, but though it had quite a lot of electronics, it focused on old-timey, classic board games more than flatscreen TVs and computers. This is certainly a good idea if you look at it one way, since they ARE using e-books instead of using just video games and stuff like that.. and we are in a Golden Age of Technology.. but I do NOT want the old libraries to disappear - no. So maybe a few spots where the people are most populated would be okay though.

                Cool!!!!!!! I think it is really cool that San Antonio, Tuscon, Newport Beach, and the Universty of Texas in Austin are doing this......since our whole world is full of technology now. I would not really be happy if my library changed from a normal library to a e-library. I say this because I like to feel the paper of the book in my hands, physically turn the page, and being able to bookmark a book exactly where I want to bookmark it. I think I might be the only person in the children's generation that thinks this anymore...... -📖

                if it saves money its a good move. If it faills you will lose money and that is not good for your town

                  I think that you should still have books in libraries because maybe schools cannot afford lab tops and it will take longer to find a book cause in a library with books there are choices and on a computer its hard to find the right book
