Question

Write a counter-view for the following view:
'Libraries are mere treasure chests, store-houses of books. They are
redundant today due to internet technology.'​

Answer 1

"Libraries are mere treasure chests, storehouses of books. They are redundant today due to internet technology"

The above statement couldn’t be more wrong. I do not accept the above. Although the internet has invaded all spheres of our lives, there are certain areas where the old-world charm does play a role. And libraries and books are just that.  

Only book lovers can feel and understand what it is to hold a book in one’s hands. The joy that a physical book gives cannot be replaced by the digital one. The smell and feel of books add to the charm which cannot be expressed in words but can only be felt.
