Libraries in a digital age

 I am one who enjoys being able to have the library at my hands anytime I want but I also like to be able to visit a library and hold a book. Libraries in the digital age have allowed us to have access to the library 24 hours 7 days a week, not only public libraries but academic ones as well. Digital libraries allows free card access to information otherwise only available to those that could get to the library (Freedman). Digital library offers countless convivences and advantages with many databases to chose from books, articles, music, audiobooks and many more.
