Yes, prescient, indeed. The Book continues to separate an intellect, vibrant and alive, from contemporary culture; its gap expands to be filled only with more books, a pile of literature for those who value a contemplative in between, and that's alright. Will the book disappear as our collected words fade into forgotten for the visual, perpetual feed within thumbs reach as technocrats and their lackeys take ownership of imagination, thought, obliterating personal truths and lies to strengthen their own power, where history of culture becomes obsolete, all culture exists and mutates contemporaneously, no longer temporally, in the feedback loop of the feed?
We need real librarians involved in the selecting and distribution of e-books. I can't even select and purchase any type of books, electronic or physical copies, in alphabetical order, separated by genre. There is so much advertising and lists being created by new and what are considered popular books insteaded of alphabetical order. It's disgusting. They need to hire librarians when they are creating book related technology. They also need to include instruction manuals to help consumers and researchers to make use of their new technology. I miss the alphabet.
