The death of the library? The place of the book and the reader at the time of dispersion

Abstract

With the immateriality of the book, which is its place in contemporary society? Does the library, as a repository of books make sense when the word became ubiquitous and virtually capable of being read at any point on earth? If the book exists as such only when it is read, what does it mean the reading today?
