Tax Revolt Takes Aim at a County's Libraries. Do small counties with low median incomes need public libraries? Or do they need them most of all?

I understand the importance of and wholeheartedly support libraries providing public access to the Internet, but I never thought of (and have great difficulty imagining) the Internet as a replacement for the library. That seems like the kind of thing only someone who doesn't use the library would believe-- or the Internet, for that matter.
