Abstract

In 2000, I wrote a piece called “10 Reasons Why the Internet Is No Substitute for a Library.” The article came out of an assignment my boss gave me for talking points for a new building (it didn’t work, at least not so far, but this is, after all, South Carolina). I turned that work into the article and sent it out. At the time, the article was well-received. In fact, AL placed it for a time on its persistent links page of about a half dozen other articles that folks kept asking for and about.
