/lit/ - Literature

Legit question. In a world of 24/7 access to essentially all of human knowledge in the palm of my hand, or at my comfy workstation, what relevance has the library to the average citizen?
In another age, it was the place where you could actually obtain the world's knowledge. That role has been effectively superseded.


Not trolling, honestly curious to hear what people say. I'm a bibliophile, so it's not like I'm against libraries.
