Let's not doom ourselves

Ok, so what in the world would be so emotional about reading a textbook? Well, I found myself thinking about the writer's relationship with his father, his own religious journey as well as his father's, my own children and my failings as a parent. There was a lot more in Whither the Postmodern Library than just an author passionate about reading and concerned about the doom of the library as we know it. I connected with a lot of his arguments and I am also looking toward the future of our society with trepidation. However, I am not ready to condemn the library as we know it to oblivion. I believe there can be a balance between the new and the old or I would not be in this program. It is vital to make the connection between the new and the old, or as the author suggests, we will be dooming ourselves.
