Thanks for the reference, Alejandro.

This raises the issue:  are we in the preliminary stages of an
irreversible trend of the whithering way of (non-
electronic) libraries and librarians, (non-electronic) publishing
of books and journals, and the (non-electronic) retail sale of
books and journals?  Are all of the older forms of publishing,
sales, and storage of books and journals slowly becoming
obsolete?

In solidarity, Jerry
