Libraries are irrelevant in the age of the internet and should not be publicly funded.” Do you agree or disagree?

There is a common thought in the
internet
generation that believes
libraries
are not useful anymore
thus
they should not be funded by governments. I disagree with the statement above because
libraries
still have documents and resources that can not be found on the web,
moreover
Add a comma
,moreover
show examples
some
libraries
are seen as historical gems. Bookshops are living in a crisis due to the creation of the
internet
and its various online shops.
This
is making people believe that
libraries
should not be financially helped anymore.
For example
, Amazon
,
Remove the comma

nowadays is selling any product a person needs, especially books.
In addition
, many writers tend to publicise their works through
this
online platform with the goal of reaching as many readers as possible.
As a result
, many
libraries
, especially the smaller ones do not get the publicity they need and they are forced to close. Certain
libraries
,
however
, have documents that can not be found on the
Internet
, so they need to be publicly funded in order to function well.
For example
, the
libraries
of the United Nations, are public spaces where are present official documents of the UN chart, and resources that are not available on any website.
Furthermore
, some
libraries
represent pieces of art, which in my opinion should be preserved and protected at all costs. To conclude,
although
is true that the
Internet
is easing the book business, I disagree that
libraries
should not be supported by public money because they are places which have still their unique value.

Include an introduction and conclusion

A conclusion is essential for IELTS writing task 2. It is more important than most people realise. You will be penalised for missing a conclusion in your IELTS essay.

The easiest paragraph to write in an essay is the conclusion paragraph. This is because the paragraph mostly contains information that has already been presented in the essay – it is just the repetition of some information written in the introduction paragraph and supporting paragraphs.

The conclusion paragraph only has 3 sentences:

  • Summary
  • Restatement of thesis
  • Prediction or recommendation

Example:

To summarize, a robotic teacher does not have the necessary disciple to properly give instructions to students and actually works to retard the ability of a student to comprehend new lessons. Therefore, it is clear that the idea of running a classroom completely by a machine cannot be supported. After thorough analysis on this subject, it is predicted that the adverse effects of the debate over technology-driven teaching will always be greater than the positive effects, and because of this, classroom teachers will never be substituted for technology.

Start your conclusion with a linking phrase. Here are some examples:

  • In conclusion
  • To conclude
  • To summarize
  • Finally
  • In a nutshell
  • In general
