miks on vaja raamatukogu?

Jah, mõned kirjanikud on ja jäävad sümpaatseteks! Cory Doctorow kirjutab boingboing'us, kuidas raamatukogud ja raamatukoguhoidjad on möödapääsmatult vajalikud ka tänasel päeval, internetiajastul. Vt lähemalt: Cheapskates love libraries (it's mutual).
Eriti meeldib mulle veel see lõik:
"Librarians, ultimately, are in the business of evaluating the authority of information sources, a problem that has never confronted more people than it does in the era of the Internet. I'm particularly looking forward to the day that hackspaces and libraries begin to realize that they're approaching the same problem from different directions, and a corner of the local branch into an e-waste recycling depot where librarians and tinkerers will help you build and outfit your own PC, giving you the technical and information literacy to understand what your computer is doing on your behalf."
