The Future of Reading

I read an interesting piece in Library Journal today (citation below), sent to me thanks to my subscription to "Library Link of the Day." It is about the future of reading (hence the post title), and in turn, libraries. It raises several issues which I think are interesting, but more importantly perhaps it also includes a "Reader Bill of Rights for the Digital Era" for this brave new world of electronic books, etc. In it, it raises several issues for individuals as well as libraries to consider. What do you think? Add your comments here, or post in our course Hallway Conversations discussion forum.
