As online learning becomes more common and more and more resources are converted
to digital form, some people have suggested that public libraries should be shut down
and, in their place, everyone should be given an iPad with an e-reader subscription.
Proponents of this idea state that it will save local cities and towns money because
libraries are expensive to maintain. They also believe it will encourage more people to
read because they won’t have to travel to a library to get a book; they can simply click
on what they want to read and read it from wherever they are. They could also access
more materials because libraries won’t have to buy physical copies of books; they can
simply rent out as many digital copies as they need.
However, it would be a serious mistake to replace libraries with tablets. First, digital
books and resources are associated with less learning and more problems than print
resources. A study done on tablet vs book reading found that people read 20-30%
slower on tablets, retain 20% less information, and understand 10% less of what they
read compared to people who read the same information in print. Additionally, staring
too long at a screen has been shown to cause numerous health problems, including
blurred vision, dizziness, dry eyes, headaches, and eye strain, at much higher instances
than reading print does. People who use tablets and mobile devices excessively also
have a higher incidence of more serious health issues such as fibromyalgia, shoulder
and back pain, carpal tunnel syndrome, and muscle strain. I know that whenever I read
from my e-reader for too long, my eyes begin to feel tired and my neck hurts. We should
not add to these problems by giving people, especially young people, more reasons to
look at screens.
Second, it is incredibly narrow-minded to assume that the only service libraries offer is
book lending. Libraries have a multitude of benefits, and many are only available if the
library has a physical location. Some of these benefits include acting as a quiet study
space, giving people a way to converse with their neighbours, holding classes on a
variety of topics, providing jobs, answering patron questions, and keeping the
community connected. One neighbourhood found that, after a local library instituted
community events such as play times for toddlers and parents, job fairs for teenagers,
and meeting spaces for senior citizens, over a third of residents reported feeling more
connected to their community. Similarly, a Pew survey conducted in 2015 found that
nearly two-thirds of American adults feel that closing their local library would have a
major impact on their community. People see libraries as a way to connect with others
and get their questions answered, benefits tablets can’t offer nearly as well or as easily.
While replacing libraries with tablets may seem like a simple solution, it would
encourage people to spend even more time looking at digital screens, despite the
myriad issues surrounding them. It would also end access to many of the benefits of
libraries that people have come to rely on. In many areas, libraries are such an
important part of the community network that they could never be replaced by a simple
object.
