A very very sad statement ...

In the past few days, I repeatedly overheard some of my colleagues said, "I am a librarian, but I do not read." "I am not a public librarian, I don't have to read." What a pity! A librarian who doesn't read! I guess, for most people, it doesn't matter in nowadays digital age - Books (prints) are dead; "everything" is now can be found on Google/Internet. But that's SO WRONG! The Internet is only a tool of getting information and it definitely CANNOT replace books. - I wonder why so many people cannot spell or write - it's because everything can be done by "clicking" on the keyboard. - SAD, SAD ...
