It’s pretty
hard to find a recent article about books. Thankfully, I was able to find one
that was within a few years relevancy. It concerned the question of whether or
not books were a “dying breed” thanks to television, internet and other
electronic media. The article itself held mixed messages, some hopeful, some
bleak. “The truth is, it's hard to know,” says John Y. Cole, director of the
Library of Congress' Center for the Book. “The question of who's reading, and
what they're reading, is still a puzzle.”[1]
