Internet replacing libraries as top source for research - Laura Stevens, Central Florida Future

When Jen Kiraly goes to the library to do research, she said she usually ends up leaving with a huge stack of books. "A lot of the times [the books] look like they're going to be helpful, but then when I get them home and actually read them, they're not," said Kiraly, a creative writing major. Out of frustration, she said she turns to the Internet these days to complete her research. Kiraly, a senior, said libraries should put more books and journals online so students can access them from home.
