Topic: Library ? Or Internet ? - page 4. (Read 826 times)
The internet is the modern library I call an E- library it contains all information one could look for either correct or incorrect while the library we have in our schools, houses I call it analog library .
Where do you think is best to get reliable information ?
Most people feel reluctant to spend time in the library and maybe not user friendly to them, although vital information can be gotten there.

The internet makes access to information easy. I see the internet as a huge conglomerate of unrestricted and uncontrolled information. Hence for the fact that is is uncontrolled and information can easily be provided/obtained from anyone qualified or unqualified, information gotten must be verified as it is not completely reliable.
Reliable information can be obtained from the library owing that they are hard copies of information or research that has gone through proper analysis before publishing, however this information may be outdated and not applicable to some present day situations. The information there are reliable for reference purposes.
I think the internet is easier because you can search for something easily but uniquely for the library you can read something that is not on the internet, sometimes there are readings that are not available on the internet because of copyright issues 
. but in the library you can read books that have content that is not on the internet 
.
so in conclusion you can seek knowledge about something complex that usually only exists in libraries and cannot be found on the internet due to copyright issues. but if you want to read something uncomplicated you can search the internet .
I don't really agree with you that Library is better than internet because,the library is limited to few informations and messages,that is to say it's not broad.. but in the library you can read books that have content that is not on the internet . so in conclusion you can seek knowledge about something complex that usually only exists in libraries and cannot be found on the internet due to copyright issues. but if you want to read something uncomplicated you can search the internet .While the internet covers a large area of understanding that can make even the dumbest person to know what is encoded,because it carries pictures that can be easily identifiable.
The internet carries several informations from different authorities.

The internet on the other side is fast,can be accessed at the same time by too many people, although hoarding of information is high up here,as well information given out may not be true.
I'd like to know more from your own perspective.
I think internet will be the choice of many cause you. An still access the internet from the internet. Many arthur rely on the internet to create awareness for there various books and it the hub of library but in a digital form. Many books are being stored on the internet for access, sells and documentations. Most people feel reluctant to spend time in the library and maybe not user friendly to them, although vital information can be gotten there.

You noted two different types of information storage houses.
One is dynamic while the other is kind of static.
If you are in need of dynamic information, the best place to visit is the Internet. This is because, an information that is reliable today might become non reliable next month. So, Internet will keep you updated.
In the other hand, library is fit for information proven right over a long period of time, like Hypothesis, Theories and laws. This is to say that library is good for academic works
However, OP note that the library is now in the internet - e-lib. So, there is a great integration between both in order to give the best.

Library is where to get accurate information for research but I think making use of library always could be difficult sometimes due to time factor and distance. The internet is a good source for information too , it's fast and all information one needs is always available. But not all information in the internet are real.Most people feel reluctant to spend time in the library and maybe not user friendly to them, although vital information can be gotten there.

Recently libraries are automated and we'll equipped with digital technologies.
There's something called the OPAC-- ONLINE PUBLIC ACCESS CATALOGUE.......this can be accessed from the comfort of your homes with ease.
Scholar's find it difficult to communicate, having a good communication skills matters as well,this will help get one in a dialogue with the librarian.
I prefer to be on the internet 24 hrs a day rather than getting myself locked up in the library.internet has so many advantages that is helpful and has been helpful to man.
The internet is not archaic,it is current,it informations are fresh and new,unlike the library where the books are not new.
The internet is not boring,whereas the library is boring.The internet shows us news and pictures that will keep us busy,and will get our minds engaged.

I don't think you Know the library too well, you say what you know.
The library ain't no boring place to be,maybe deep down one seems boring.
Library books are updated, want a vital information ?
Meet the librarian on duty and they'll get your information ready before 24hours.
Should be saying the library ain't your thing and the internet more user friendly than the library for you.
Is it that some are just too reluctant to read, to good to the library ?
First teir level of information can be gotten from the library, without hiding such information.
The internet on the other side of it is fast,easy to use by too many people at the same time from different locations,user friendly,but not everyone knows how to surf the internet and get what he or what they wants, a quick move to the library and you'll get fast response and assistance from the librarian's.
Maybe the older generation feels the library is more user friendly, and the present generation feels the internet is also more reliable and user friendly....both offer's what the other ain't offering,so making use of them both can be vital and essential for students researchers etc.

I go for the Internet above the library. With the Internet you can quickly browse into relevant sites through the search engine when a site you are browsing does not have what you are looking for. But with library once a book does not have what you want you will find it difficult locating it on another textbook. Another is that the Internet brings excitement with a click while library makes one think they are confined to a hospital or some unexciting events.
It depends on the subject you're looking for, generally, I'd prefer online, it's a much faster and efficient tool when looking for information, while even there's a wide variety of books available online. On the other hand, the internet could also be full of misinformation, something that can be avoided if you're thorough when choosing your sources.
On the other hand, there's definitely a lot of information to be gathered from books, but I find it too old-fashioned for my liking, consumes too much time and effort which could be used elsewhere.

The library and the internet are both very essential for the dissemination of information to the public. However, they both have their strengths and their weaknesses. In terms of speed and convenience, the internet is better. But the downside of the internet is that there is so much fake information being peddled by self-acclaimed "experts". For a library, the information gotten there are more reliable and the quoting authorities are more recognized.
Since it is often the homeless who hang out at the library, this might be how the recognized authorities get their recognition.
Is this myopia or what?

Both good and useful now a days even before.Library before i was in college ,i love reading than, go in front in computer based on my experience,But i think now those in college,mostly the use internet,can easily click/press to computer or anu gadgets,they can research fast than the library ,if not in hurry to do your homework/assignments for me it's better to refer library,why can focus to read whatever you want to find in library . Internet fastest way,depends in a one person if can manage long time in internet.
both have pros and cons and you mentioned it already on your post .
i also believe that we can only get the most reliable information in the books or in by libraries because not all informations in the internet is legit and there can be legit but the information can be limited only .
what is good with library is that they are free , i mean you dont need to buy a data like what we are doing when accesing the internet .
Yeah,you don't need to buy data in library,but buying data on internet broadens your knowledge about what you are looking for,because you don't get knowledge about the field you are going for from one source,you get it from different source,which gives and adds more ideas to the knowledge you already had on it,but library is limited to one idea,which is the one in that book.It doesn't broadens your mind on something,it limits your brain capacity because you are not stretching it. i also believe that we can only get the most reliable information in the books or in by libraries because not all informations in the internet is legit and there can be legit but the information can be limited only .

The internet can be called digital library which is fast and easy to get every information. This days research's are mostly done in the internet.
For study & research, What is better? internet or library.
I think the internet is the best. The Internet has a big facility that provides all kinds of knowledge on one Shelf. This is a library that has easy access and it is approachable for everyone. Internet is the biggest library in the world that provides all kinds of knowledge may be politics, social, financial, mathematical, physical, biological, physics. astrology, chemistry, geology, etc. There is no example of a library in the world that can provide knowledge of all trade and departments as the internet provides.
