| Do you prefer print books or e-books? | | Hi, friends. I've just read an article entitled "school library goes to digital" which says that the Cushing Academy(the very model of a modern New England boarding school) has replaced all the print books in its library with e-books. In the past few years, the old library was in danger of becoming a relic. Its 20,000-book collection was barely used, administrators say. Spot checks last year found that, on some days, fewer than 30 books circulated. So the venerable boarding school west of Boston began getting rid of most of the library’s books. In their place: a fully digital collection.Library watchers say it could be the first school library, public or private, to forsake ink-and-paper in favor of e-books.Reading David Copperfield in English class? A librarian will gladly download it onto one of 65 Kindle handheld electronic book readers from Amazon.com, which circulate like library books. ...So whether this digital school library will have a promising future, only time will tell.[em]rasp[/em]
Well, then. My question is: Do you prefer print books or e-books?
As for me, I prefer print books most of the time. I don't like... | |
| | How do you sell books on Chegg.com? | | Okay, so this one magazine they said that you can sell novels and textbooks on Chegg.com. It says you can get $40 for textbooks n $10 for novels. But I went online and every time i entered in the ISB code from my novels, it said that they were not eligable for sale.:( I even entered in one of my textbooks just to check and it said the same thing too! On the buttons on the website it says "Sell Textbooks" and "Rent Textbooks", etc. But TEXTBOOKS. It doesnt say any books, or novels. So, what's wrong? Did the magazine lie? Can you ONLY sell textbooks? Or, am I doing something wrong? I don't have an account, so maybe do you need to make an account first in order to sell anything? If anyone's used this site n knows how, please tell me! | |

I don't have enough info's how did they let this selected type of books only made part in the bible. Maybe its about the hormony of it. | |

| | can internet replace the books in the lib? | | i believe that we can't replace printed books since they are the hard copies and we can always check on them anytime we want. the internet offers almost everything that we need to know but there are still limitations especially when there is no electricity. | |
