RE; Why Print Encyclopeedias

[Rob Lambert <domnlt@HOTMAIL.RO>]

One simple question about Electronic vs. Digital: How are you going to serve
customers if the power goes out?

I love digital sources, but if we depend on them exclusively, we are leaving
ourselves and our libraries vulnerable to unforseen outside forces that affect
our service ability.

No professional sports team ever goes to play without a back-up. Why should we
as professional librarians do any less?
