FUTURE READING

THE NEW YORKER magazine recently ran an article by Anthony Grafton entitled FUTURE READING which deals with "digitization and its discontents". It is an excellent treatise on libraries, digitized books, reading, Google, and just about everything else related to how we are going to read and do research in the 21st century. The article touches on the history of reading, printing, and libraries.

It's an extensive piece. So be prepared to get immersed in an extensive treatment of the subject. You can find it at ..... http://decenturl.com/newyorker/future-reading
