Blog Reflection #4

If I were managing a library and had 5,000.00 to decide what to purchase I would slit it up an purchase some for electronic materials and some to put ion the shelves such as new encyclopedias and statistical abstracts etc. reason being that even in this modern age we are in everyone does not own a computer and there are some who choose not to learn how to use one are just haven’t learn how. The down fall to only using the self version of material is that you limited to what’s there, and the web site gives you much more to choose from. Print material is not becoming obsolete mainly because of the reasons I just mentioned. The only thing about print material is the it is limited, I believe library collections would be best serve in research for students doing research. There some thing that I have notice which made me say that the web is a better source of information and I thought about that in doing discussion 7 and that is when I was coming up as children in school we always used the dictionary, but it gave straight and to the point definitions, with the web the dictionary give you that and much more, so I can sat that is one good reason for the web.
