The maintenance of public libraries is a waste of money because of compute technology that has similar functions. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

It is often argued that

money

spent on maintaining public libraries is a waste of resources when computers are available that perform similar functions.

However

, I partially agree with that statement .

Although

, computers have made significant progress in being able to store data , the experience and traditional feel that libraries bring into our culture cannot be overlooked . On the one hand, owing to technological advances computers are now able to perform various tasks ,the major one being data storing. Unsurpassed amounts of books have been digitalized and are now available only a click away.

Consequently

has led to the widespread use of computers in gaining knowledge. To substantiate, platforms

such

as Wikipedia and Google are now loaded with unlimited information on any topic. Henceforth, computers replace the functions libraries perform.

On the other hand

, public libraries are a part of tradition and culture , and

money

spent on their maintenance is absolutely necessary. Certainly, libraries have a plethora of books available that have been preserved for centuries.

Furthermore

, only rate manuscripts can be found in a library which cannot be digitalized , by means of a computer.

For example

Nonetheless

, the paramount importance of libraries for the preservation of culture and tradition cannot be denied . From my perspective
