     After a discussion last week, "Do School Libraries Need Books?", the comments from readers
included some firsthand views from students.Below are excerpts(摘录) from their observations on
how studying has changed and how they use libraries.
      It makes little difference whether the book you are reading is electronic or paper.But if you want
a place to read, a library is still the place to go.As a kid in school, I often avoid the study hall noises
and go to the quiet school library.The library is a place.A learning place.Modern technology won't
change the library as long as things are learned.
     -Scott
      Being a student I am aware that many of us seldom look at the books in the library unless told to
do so by a teacher as a requirement for an assignment.It takes time to find the very book you want at
the library, and it may not be necessary to do so.More and more students, such as myself, use the
Internet for nearly every assignment.There are countless online resources for us to use with a click of
the mouse.What's more, books are very expensive and schools could put that money toward charities.
     -HayleyH
     I hope schools continue to have libraries.As a student, I know there is a difference between reading
something on a screen and something printed.When I read something in a book that I do not understand
or want to look further into, I record it and will research later or discuss with someone.With a screen
(especially online) I will instantly access the information and look into the question at hand, which
interrupts my reading and especially my imagination.
      -Allie
      To me, it depends on the purpose of the book.As a student, I prefer to do research online.Online
research is faster and more efficient.But when I'm reading for pleasure, I absolutely refuse to give up
a real book.The tactile sensation(触感) and freedom that real books give you really makes the reading
experience more enjoyable.So, my suggestion is that schools have more digital collections for research
and scholarly work, and a good selection of interesting and ageappropriate fiction and nonfiction for
pleasure reading.
