The world 's first fully digital library is constructed for USD 2.3 Million and only comes 48 iMac , MacBook Pro 10 and 40 tablet iPad. It has a collection of 10,000 ebooks that can be downloaded by users . Each visitor can borrow 5 books in an iPad ebooks at one time . There is also a special reading room for children with Microsoft Surface touchscreen computer .
According BiblioTech , the response is very encouraging residents of San Antonio and the library is always full after school hours. According to them the costs of long-term management of the library is also much cheaper because they do not have to buy stock in the new book , and then enlarge the building to house the book.
Are digital library will completely replace the traditional library in the future? Personally we feel much more comfortable physical book to read and if the book fell on face while reading in a reclined position , the probability that the face will hurt is much lower !
