I disagree - I think you're extrapolating from your own experience into everyone. I sell a moderate number of books I've written each month (nothing special, but it's about 1/10 of my income), and that's print only. They're definitely not dead in schools, and lots of people have said they like having a physical book to read from. In addition, despite owning a kindle, I always buy physical books, not ebooks. I don't own the ebooks, and the kindle reading experience is convenient (in terms of transporting many books with me), but it's not as good (for me) as a paper book. I read books - in fact aside from work, it's about the only thing that I -do- do.
