How much, if at all, do you think libraries will have to change to remain relevant? Will books be enough? Will they have to integrate more tech/digital formats? Perhaps libraries could offer kindles that you check out with expiring content that you need to "reload" at the actual library.
I think that my grandkids will read books the way we listen to records or write people hand written letters. It will be something done out of nostalgia not practicality. That's why I think they will be in short supply in 100 years. Not nonexistent but instead of a city having 20 libraries, they might have 1. I sure hope I get a chance to find out in person.
