With schools switching to Ebooks ,does the hardcover book have a chance of lasting into the future?

The number of people reading digital books is increasing.

According to the Pew Research Center, 21 percent of Americans have read an Ebook and 43 percent have read Econtent.

The number of Ebooks sold is growing.

According to Mashabel.com, this year Ebook sales surpassed hardcover book sales.

But not all students are ready to make the switch.

“ I like the direction they are going, but I have always liked having a text book in hand,” said Kristen Reynolds, Oklahoma State University Sophomore. “I don’t think real books will ever be gone. Or at least I hope so. I like having a library.”

Its safe to say that the digital book is growing in popularity, but it seems like the hardcover book is here to stay.
