Reading makes the man perfect which is the famous thought, nowadays few people buy printed newspapers and book to gain some knowledge, but in future usage of books and newspapers will reduced and they focus on internet to read anything, people want or sometimes books will be abandoned.
Anyone wants to seek something, earlier they used books or newspapers. But it is difficult to find relevant information, perhaps people must read more than one book, it is very time consuming which can overcome by online websites provided accurate information what anyone wants. Only thing people can do is reaching the relevant information by typing on google.
Nowadays books are converted into pdf by taking photos or typing the content but most of them are paid visions in addition to that least number of free accesses are there. In future people are mainly dependent on technology therefore, knowledge is the key factor to develop the technology that means sources are required to gain some knowledge as students or adults. Online platform will be a mainly resource to read everything. I think paid visions of these sources will not be a barrier to access.
Reading printed book will be an old fashion. Nowadays if anyone want to read a book, they can go the library because it is the main source of printed book. In future these libraries will change to utilize advance technology. Libraries will use e-books instead of printed book and they store e-books in a pattern like they did for printed books to easily get access. Communities are able to get a membership an access to the e-library.
In conclusion, the printed newspapers and books will replaced by a e-books and online articles which will be able to access without any payment in future.
