Journal #4 e-Books

I think that E-books will become very popular but libraries will still be used. Many people do not have the money to afford e-books or e-readers; they are expensive ranging from prices 200 and higher. New technology can also be hard to use, people that are older aren’t use to the newer technology and there for would still like to use libraries. Libraries are also free, unless you lose or damage the book. A library is somewhere to go that’s quiet and that you can concentrate on work or just sit down and relax and read a book. I believe that libraries will not lose visitors because of E-books becoming more popular.

Journal #3

My first few weeks of library science have been fun and interesting! I didn’t think being a librarian would be this hard. I have learned how to shelf books properly, how to sign books out to other students. Signing books out to other students is my favourite; I love scanning the books and then stamping them with the due date! What I find difficult is the blog; I have never made a blog before. The first few blogs were quit difficult but after a few more I got to know how to use it more. I would like to learn about how you become a librarian, what do you have to do for education to become one. So far I have enjoyed my days in the library and can’t wait to learn more stuff in library science!!  

Journal #2 The Poverty Of Abundance

When I need information for a project I go right to the internet. I find it really frustrating when I go on goggle and type in something that I need information on and a million things pop up! It would be a lot easier if just a few things came up. When I get tired of looking for the right information I go right to the free encyclopaedia, because it usually has all the information right there and it’s the easy way of doing research fast. The encyclopaedia isn’t a good resource though because anyone can make things up and post them on it. I tired using the advance search on Google and it’s a lot easier and way faster to do research on! I will use the advance search from now on!
