Personally I enjoy both digital and printed books, but there is something warm and familiar about printed books which makes it very different from digital reading, which tends to feel colder and much less human]]> 2020-04-02 00:05:14 UTC https://padlet.com/ng_yuiyun2/l9d7fp1kmedb/wish/487855797 in short, (2) yes akavaramkaushikreddy https://padlet.com/ng_yuiyun2/l9d7fp1kmedb/wish/487906975 1) The reason why e and my friends go to the library is because it help us find a serene place which encourages a centered and mentally calming place to do our own homework and revision. It also helps us to catch up on some reading.
2) Ye as we do not need books to be physical, for knowledge can be acquired in any shape or form and not only physical books. we can acquire the same info from other boo-like resources like E-books and newspapers. This also benefits the earth as the paper used in producing newspapers and books are severely reduced.]]> 2020-04-02 01:17:58 UTC https://padlet.com/ng_yuiyun2/l9d7fp1kmedb/wish/487906975 1) Yes, I think a library is still a library even without printed books. At the end of the day , this question boils down to what purpose does the individual think the library should serve. For me, I believe the library should serve as a platform for individuals, from all walks of life, to explore ideas and innovations made by civilisation throughout history. Given this, a library is still a library even without printed books as they are other alternatives that provide the same depth of knowledge and can work just as well. For example, digital books. https://padlet.com/ng_yuiyun2/l9d7fp1kmedb/wish/487962274 2) The need to find a quiet space to do homework or do research for a project.]]> 2020-04-02 02:40:49 UTC https://padlet.com/ng_yuiyun2/l9d7fp1kmedb/wish/487962274 yes https://padlet.com/ng_yuiyun2/l9d7fp1kmedb/wish/487965127 there can be digital books too! and i see livrary as a quiet place to study or learn so it’s still a library as long as its quiet and ppl can do work there]]> 2020-04-02 02:45:26 UTC https://padlet.com/ng_yuiyun2/l9d7fp1kmedb/wish/487965127 Yes (1) https://padlet.com/ng_yuiyun2/l9d7fp1kmedb/wish/487966652 A library without physical books is still a library, as long as there is a story being told or knowledge being learnt from it]]> 2020-04-02 02:47:47 UTC https://padlet.com/ng_yuiyun2/l9d7fp1kmedb/wish/487966652 https://padlet.com/ng_yuiyun2/l9d7fp1kmedb/wish/487966867 1) The library is an environment that is quiet and peaceful, which is suited for studying.

The library is a place when one goes to expand their knowledge. The library could have digital books which are also a source of information. https://padlet.com/ng_yuiyun2/l9d7fp1kmedb/wish/487968258 2) The ability to find almost any information we want at our fingertips will make us want to go to the library.

The actual place/building cannot be called a library, it would just be a placed for people to study or search for online books if needed.
2) my friends and i can go tp the library to study together and revise for upcoming exams.

People do not only go to the library to read books, some of us go there to study as it has a conducive environment.

(2)If library is without printed books,it would not consider library anymore.Printed books have lasted for so long in our history and we use printed books to pass down our knowledge to next generation.I believe that printed books are more effective and useful to contain information as compared to electronic books;printed books can undergo the wash of time,even survive in different disasters.Hence,printed books have an important meaning to us.Most importantly,reading printed book is good for our eyes and it can create an enjoyable reading atmosphere.]]> 2020-04-24 01:21:12 UTC https://padlet.com/ng_yuiyun2/l9d7fp1kmedb/wish/527213394 https://padlet.com/ng_yuiyun2/l9d7fp1kmedb/wish/527215360 1)i think library is a place where people can study and relax as it is very quiet there

2)Yes,a library without printed book is still a library as nowadays not a lot of people would want to walk out of their house to the library to read/borrow book.Therefore there are E-book for people to read at home using their own mobile device as it is more convenient.]]> 2020-04-24 01:28:01 UTC https://padlet.com/ng_yuiyun2/l9d7fp1kmedb/wish/527221513 5em(2) https://padlet.com/ng_yuiyun2/l9d7fp1kmedb/wish/527222284 1. To convince my friends to go to the library would be hard but maybe if there were to be movie sessions for some young adult books, they might be interested to go to the library.
2. It is still considered a library even though there are no printed books, only e-books. Even now, libraries have audio books? (idk what's called).

I would say its the comforting atmosphere that drags us out of our home and travel all the way to the library just to complete a task that could be done at home. Not too sure about my friends, but personally i see the library as a getaway location. Whenever i enter a library, (preferably with a nice interior design) and pick up a book, it feels as though i got pulled into wonderland where anything is possible.
2) In literal meaning, yes. A library is a place of knowledge whether or not in book form, but whether or not it would still feel like a library more than a computer lab is debatable. After some time libraries wouldn't even be a designated area outside your house, it would've turned into a website.

1)My friends would not want to visit a library as to him library is not a place to study.He would prefer studying at home.While i on the other hand would like to visit the library, library have no only air-con but books.It have conducive environment for studying.I would visit a library to study if not borrow books.
2)Having a few friends or classmates can have a quiet place to read the information and then discuss what it is they have learned. Some of the best methods for learning is hearing the information spoken back to you and then having a chance to listen to a different view that can help you break down the study information. It is not a library, as what i think of a library is that not only it is a place for gathering and study.It is filled with books and knowledge, without printed books it lacks the knowledge others would seek for ,for example who would go to a bookshop without books ,just like a library even if people still got to library it will only turn out to be a place to gather and study .More like a study corner , people go to library to get details and knowledge without printed books most people will not visit the library anymore as their main motive to go to a library is either to borrow a book or read up on books.But there can be a argue that they are still E-books but printed books cover up the most part of the libraries. People would think E-books we can just buy them our self .]]> 2020-04-24 02:00:19 UTC https://padlet.com/ng_yuiyun2/l9d7fp1kmedb/wish/527258068 1) What would make you and your friends want to visit the library. (1) https://padlet.com/ng_yuiyun2/l9d7fp1kmedb/wish/527717148 Personally I am surrounded by friends who are like book-worms and I frequently visit the library as well to broaden my interest or acquire new skills. Since my friends are book-lovers so persuading them to visit the library is not a hassle. Additionally, our conversation will sometimes be adverted to new and trendy books. The main reason why we would still choose to visit the library as we are constantly fascinated by the new books coming in and the endless genres of books selection. Plus most of my friends and I think that life without books are boring because books are like energy food to us sometimes as we read them to allow our imagination to grow. And we sometimes we read them to escape the boring reality.

However I do have some friends who are not keen and dislike visiting the library, usually I would make up an excuse that we are going to the library to study as their library is a very quiet and conducive environment to think. So in the meantime, while we spend our time studying, they would subconsciously pick up a book of their interest. Additionally, with that reason, people can still visit the library, so the library would not merely be a place where books are stored in or a place with abundance of knowledge that nobody visits it (as nowadays people are really invested in social medias) and, instead it will be a place where we can still learn new things.]]> 2020-04-24 08:20:45 UTC https://padlet.com/ng_yuiyun2/l9d7fp1kmedb/wish/527717148 2) Is a library without printed books still a library? https://padlet.com/ng_yuiyun2/l9d7fp1kmedb/wish/527755667 No. Because personally ]]> 2020-04-24 08:38:59 UTC https://padlet.com/ng_yuiyun2/l9d7fp1kmedb/wish/527755667
