I read your column with interest.
Here’s another point of view: As you know I recently started a graduate program in counseling. There is a lot of library research involved. In the old days, I had to go to the library, sneeze my way through dusty card catalogs, find the journals (IF my library subscribed to them) and if I was lucky the article of pursuit wasn’t torn out of the magazine. Collecting as few as a half dozen articles was laborious, boring, tedious work with frequent dead ends.
Today, as you know the situation is much different. I log in at home in my bathrobe, do an online search using a few keywords to filter topics and within seconds I’ve downloaded all the articles I need! It actually makes reseach almost enjoyable! I can concentrate on the information and not on the acquisition of the information.
Be well my friend.
