How many people use a library/books to research, compared to the internet?

Posted on February 2, 2010 by admin

If you have statistics that show this, it’d be great. But guesswork is fine too.

i only do when a teacher limits the number of online sources you can cite… although in some instances the library can be more effective, like when you need to look up writing criticism for, say an English paper.
so i use the library/books maybe 5% of the time

    I mostly use the internet for research unless I am given a major paper to do. In the case of a really important report that will determine a large portion of my grade I will use the internet, magazines, encyclopedias, and regular books to gather my research from.

    80% I use only the internet
    15% I use books and internet
    5% I use everything I can get my hands on
