15.Libraries were created 5,000 years ago according to History Magazine.As more and more countries put their ideas into writing,the need for an organized classification(分类) system was needed.Thus,the library was born.Libraries gained popularity in the United States when Benjamin Franklin created the"Library Company of Philadelphia,"which focused on America's history and culture and is believed to be the first successful lending library.
According to the American Library Association,there are 120,096 libraries in the U.S.today.According to Pew Research Center,libraries serve 94% of Americans,but only 54% of Americans have used their libraries in the past year.

"All of the books are online,"AHS junior Claire Minor says,"so there is no need for me to go to the library anymore."
While some students believe that the libraries,particularly school libraries,are a thing of the past,others beg to differ.

As schools continue to become more technology-enriched learning environments,the idea of physical libraries going away becomes a real possibility.For instance,at AHS a majority of the school work is done on computers.If libraries closed,91% of Americans believe that it would negatively affect their communities.
"I don't think that all libraries will go extinct.Books still have value and libraries are filled with so many more resources.Check it out at the library!"says Mrs Musbach,the North campus Librarian at AHS.
