Globalization of the internet through the continents is allowing the majority to have access to lots of information including
e-
books
. There is an idea being claimed by a number of people that paper
books
 are about to get lost due to
e-
books
, while others believe that paper-based
books
 will never vanish. In my opinion, due to the availability of different types along with time-saving of the reader, electronic
books
 will continue to increase in need,

 have their importance and they will keep being a part of the reader’s life.
To begin
 with, the development of the internet has positively affected the way people read.
In other words
, for the
last
 couple, of years numerous electronic versions of new and historical
books
 are uploaded to the internet from where a person can get his lovely book not regarding his location.
For example
, a recent survey conducted by Oxford University asked 100 students to find historical
books
 (some of which do not exist in paper versions) around the Bristol libraries, surprisingly 98% of students found
books
 in e-version.
In addition
, the trend of electronic
books
 led to saving vast time, especially in student life.
That is
 to say, when there are examinations or assignments upcoming, students may find
e-
books
 handier rather than going to the libraries since it saves their precious time.
On the other hand
, handbooks had been a part of humanity and will continue their importance. With the help of paper-based,
books
 our ancestors left essential education for hundreds of years.
Moreover
, a physical book is less stressful compared to

, electronic types will be in much demand in close future for their benefits mentioned above.
