Really disappointing article, and it only mentions libraries as a link to another very disappointing article. That said, if you've been to a "modern" public library (let's say built or significantly renovated in the last 10-15 years???) lately, you will definitely notice that they are popular and well-used by the younger generations. If you don't live near one, check one out when traveling. We've done that a few times - hang out at the local library on a rainy day when on vacation or visiting old friends. You'll find that even in deep red states where it seems like the only thing they talk about regarding libraries is banning books, the libraries are often fantastic and well-used.
