A book is known as the best friend of humans, and I also agree with it. It's because it can help us to gain knowledge, and aside from gaining knowledge, we can acquire many qualities, such as patience, as a bonus. Knowledge is something that can assist us in every kind of situation. And a library is known as the storehouse of knowledge. In the past only hard copy or physical books were available, but at the present time we are living in a digital era, and we have the soft copy, which we can read from our smartphones.

For various reasons, the popularity of breeding online books as well as ebooks is increasing. It can give us access to many books without buying, and there is no portability issue, which allows us to read a book in any place. Actually, the demand for physical books has been decreasing with time, and it's very natural that the demand for libraries is also decreasing. Many libraries have already shut down because of it, as very few readers go to the library for reading books. In the future it is possible most of the library will be shut down. What if the time arrives and there is only one library left? What kind of problem does the librarian face, and will I choose to go there for reading books?
I love to read physical books, and in that case I never doubt. Reading a physical book gives a different kind of feeling. It gives me warmth, and the feeling cannot be found from an ebook. It is very natural for me to choose a physical book over an ebook. But they are conditioned. The location of the library. If the location is very close to my home, then there is no doubt that I would prefer to visit the library every day, as I love it. But if the location is not the nearby place of my house, there is no chance of me visiting the library because I am such a person who really goes for my home, and why should I waste my time going to a library while I can read the book as a PDF version? I know that I am very much comfortable with physical books, but it is not so worthy to waste my time. Additionally, I have the habit of reading books online also, and it will not be difficult for me to adapt to it.
Let's talk about what a librarian will face. I believe that he is such a situation arrives, the librarian will not have some any task to do because most of the people will read online version. In the case of academic books, I think that there is no chance of going to the library because it never allows us to search anything easily, but online we can summarize everything and find the key points easily with the help of AI, and it is very much helpful to save our time. I believe that people are not so foolish as to waste their precious time for academic purposes in a library. I also suggest taking help of AI in such a case. I strongly believe that really people will visit the library, and the librarian will not have any tasks to do except keeping the library clean.
I also think that the library will be shut down very soon because running a library will not be profitable. I don't believe that it will be capable enough to pay a salary for a librarian. Many things will face a dead end with the advanced world, and the library is going to be one of them.
