2010 - the Year of Resuscitating "The Book"

I think this year I am focusing on promoting "the book" as a concept. There is too much press about books and libraries and librarians being "dead." Our library numbers keeping increasing or staying high every month. Most of our circulation is books. So in my real world I do not see this extinction that is being so often declared in the online world and even the print world.

Take a look at this brief blog entry about Amazon's sale of e-books at Christmas and also check out the linked video on "How to destroy the Book."
