Libraries seem to be an institute that was going the way of the dinosaur. But now they have e-books for their members to borrow. This has to be the saving grace that keeps them in business by keeping with the times. For those who do not use the library then how do you read without breaking the bank? I must read more than twenty books in six months. By the end of the year I am getting close to fifty books read.
The downfall of e-books from the library is the small amount of selection of books. They do not have all the books on your list you are wanting to check out. So now what? You could wait and see if they can order it for you. Or if you can’t wait, then buy the e-book through Amazon or Nook, whichever one is your preference.
A lot of companies will be disappearing by the end of 2014. Those that made the list are: JC Penny and Barnes and Nobles Nook ( http://247wallst.com/special-report/2013/05/23/ten-brands-that-will-disappear-in-2014/2/ ). It is daunting to see some of the companies go but we have seen them struggle for too long.
If you know of another business on it’s last leg share it here. There have been many publishing companies merging with other companies but this seems to make good bedfellows. No big publishing companies are even hinting of shutting their doors. Thank goodness!
