Bryan B on 22 Nov 10Glazer, Sarah. "Future of Books" 2010. CQ Researcher. Vol 19. pg 473-500. Web. 20 Nov 2010. This article is about how books are going from being the print form to the electronic for as e-books. It includes how they are adding things such as video, sound, and graphics to the text. Some people fear that this will cause the loss of literacy and the dangers the world's store of knowledge will face if it becomes completely digital. While e-books still don't take up a large portion of books sold, it is predicted to increase as the main group of consumers, middle-aged women, is replaced with newer generations.
