discuss Do You Really Need a Personal Home Library Play in the Digital Era?

[Apsara]

Many readers still love collecting physical books, even with eBooks available. Do you have a home library? If so, what’s your system for organizing your books? Or have you gone fully digital to save space?

I prefer to have both worlds, except that I tend to lean more slightly to the side of embracing digital over paper. Although, there is something about being able to physically touch and feel books but i still prefer the digital books.

Many readers still love collecting physical books,

I love physical books and the physical experience add a whole new level of engagement to my reading. Nothing beats exploring my shelves for new books. Through the years, I make it a point of duty to organise my books according to the genre and by author in alphabetical order.

It doesn't stop there, I also put all my treasured titles in a separate place and I labelled it "my favorite books". The only thing that appeal to me about digital books is the convenience of transporting a multitude of them seamlessly from place to place. I can literarily have all of them packed up in my phone.

embracing digital over paper.

Keeping physical books can be problematic. I have a bucket full of my school books and it gives me a lot of headache when I move between different living spaces.

The stress of carrying them was too much. So, I made a decision to use the digital books more and it proved to be a complete transformative experience.

All my books are readily accessible on my mobile devices and I discovered outstanding digital library websites and book subscription platforms that helped me as well.

I'm still reading physical printed books because I love the feeling of it and also the smell of books. I will not deny e-books being great especially with eliminating having to carry books around.
