Minimalist, Futuristic Library, although my experience with libraries locally makes me question their shock at OMG! Books!

This library reminds me in part of The Planner's Library, seen in this icon by [personal profile] meeks.

Yeah. Even if my local library now stocks DVDs (and still some VHS tapes), CDs, and books on CD/Tape, and eBook lending (so long as you use Windows), they still have row upon row of actual paper books on shelves.

I'd love a good thorough set of reference ebooks. But that said, paper has quite a few advantages. Starting these days with "No DRM!" It also reads on its own, no hardware needed. Then throw in that if it's non-acid paper stored in even semi-reasonable conditions then it should last for a very long time.
