>“Why is she doing that?” they whisper. “Why doesn’t she just Google it?”
A lot of the best books that I read I found -because- I was looking through the stacks at the library. Search engines largely fail to do that (except for the 'stacks' at Internet Archive).
Oh, and when I do find one at the library, I don't have to pay for a copy to find out whether I'm interested. I open it and have a look.
Search engines also never nudge me with 'Psst ... have you seen this? Different author but right up your line of interest.'
Amazing how, for all their snooping, they just never bother to be helpful.
