Letter (I hope someone can correct this before Wednsesday)
Dear Mike,
Thank you for your letter, I highly enjoyed reading it.
It is interesting to hear you are doing a project about using websites instead of books. Here in the Netherlands we use websites a lot. Not only for dictionary use, but also for looking up information (for example on Wikipedia or and other subject related site). It is quite common here to have your books online, it is some kind of trend that started around 2000(?), when more and more people started to have their own laptops.
My favourite website for study purposes is Edwardian Promenade. I’m a history student and I major in the Edwardian period, on this website you can find a lot of information about this time period.
I don’t think students will stop using traditional libraries in the future, because using books is more convenient. You can easily go to a certain page that you’d like to read, and books contain a lot more information than websites ever will.
What’s more, is that websites don’t read that pleasantly. You’ll have to scroll and your eyes will become tired of the blue screen after a while. The light a computer or mobile phone sends out is quite unhealthy for your eyes. You can even develop wrong sleeping habits, because the blue light causes trouble if you want to go to sleep.
In conclusion, I think traditional libraries will not disappear, because websites don’t read pleasantly and the blue light is unhealthy. Also, you can read a book more easily.
I hope I gave you the right information and I hope you’ll have a pleasant time during the project.
Best wishes,
Meike

What’s more, websites aren't enjoyable to read. You have to scroll as you read and your eyes can become tired from the blue screen after a while. The light from a computer or mobile phone is bad for your eyes. You can develop bad sleeping habits. This is because the blue light causes problems when you want to go to sleep.
In conclusion, I think traditional libraries will not disappear, because websites are not pleasant to read, the blue light is unhealthy and reading a book is easier.
I hope I have given you the corrrct information and I hope you’ll have a pleasant time during the project.
