The main purpose of public libraries is to provide books, and they should not waste their limited resources and space on providing expensive hi-tech media such as computer software, videos and DVDs. To what extent do you agree or disagree with this statement?

#purpose #libraries #books #waste #resources #space #media #computer #software #videos #dvds
In recent years, there are many methods for
people
 to obtain knowledge. Not only the book but
also
 the different kinds of media
such
 as the Internet, short film etc. The main purpose of public
libraries
 is to let
people
 enhance their knowledge while it should not be limited to the way to learn. In my view, I totally disagree with
this
 statement and in
this
 essay will discuss the reason in-depth.
To begin
 with,
libraries
 is to provide knowledge to the public. Reading in paper-based materials, like
books
, newspapers or magazines is one kind of method. Having hi-media
such
 as computer software,
videos
 and DVDs are
also
 useful for
people
 to study new information.
For instance
, the Internet can provide much updated or trendy news.
Secondly
, there is a brunch of
books
 and
videos
 in the world. It is difficult for
people
 to purchase all their favourite
books
 or movie
videos
.
People
 can borrow from
libraries
,
also
 there have many options for them to choose from.
In addition
, it will be more environmentally friendly as the
books
 or
videos
 will not become useless after reading.
Finally
,
libraries
 are friendly to low-income families. They do not have extra money to buy the
books
 or
videos
 or even the computer updated software. So that they can go to
libraries
 to enjoy the hi-tech media or borrow the book without spending any money. In conclusion,
libraries
 should be included different ways for
people
 to learn and study which is not limited to only paper-based materials. From my perspective, I believe the other facilities are essential in
libraries
.
