Realistically the boomer generation will be the last to fully utilize the library. within 20 years local libraries will be gone. The generations that are coming up have no use for a library. The internet and electronic media have taken the place of printed books. Ask anyone under the age of 50 When was the last time they were in a library? Ask those under 30 where the library is? You won't like either answer.
