School libraries replaced with learning commons

School libraries replaced with ‘learning commons’ (Catholic school system in Ontario)

“We’ve kept reference materials here (in the library),” school principal David Lozinsky said. “That will help the teachers when they come to a certain point in their curriculum. Whether they’re working on research, iPads, let’s face it, it’s a digital world now, Everything in the school, like books will be online, so there might not be a need for books anymore,” he said.
