>a ton of kids/teens >A lot of kids Yes, I was one of those kids, but most of the kids I went to school with weren't readers and never went to the library for fun. In a densely populated area if 1% of kids regularly vist the library, it will be packed. Still--most kids don't. I also wasn't implying that libraries are without merit. The OP implied that the internet wasn't beneficial as an educational tool because most kids don't take advantage of it's potential. I merely pointed out that the same was true for libraries.
