I think the future of the publishing world will evolve into a technological medium. Books will all be scanned and put into data application. It will be like a library but accessible to the online world. Libraries will become extinct like the dinosaurs. No longer will there be the need for printing, or storage of books.( I think environmentalist will be into the idea because there will be no need to cut down so many trees because they will not need paper for books.)
There are already companies that are creating programs and gadgets using the idea of books being loaded into a data application.
I think it will be a hard idea to sell at first. People like to have a physical book that they can hold and touch. The familiarity of a book will keep people from converting but books made out of paper will cease to exist like the dinosaurs. I think they will try to ease the public into it by using tablets. People will throw out paper books like they threw out cassettes. Technology will triumph over what people’s old way reading a book.

I think the future generation will scoff when our generation reminisce about the good out days when we would go to the library or the bookstore and sit and read a good old paper back.
