An ebook is great … but it is not the same thing as reading an ink on paper book shelved at home in ones personal library

An opinion article by Faith Bottum in the Wall Street Journal about ink on paper books, ebook readers and bookshelves spoke to me last week … so I tweeted about it in agreement; I love having books in the home.
Perhaps being in printing and publishing established my love for ink on paper, but for whatever reason, I do still prefer “hard and soft copy” books and keeping them on bookshelves in a personal library.
