Ebook Dangers
I read books using Kindle and Libby thorough Pennsylvania’s and New York City’s public library systems. Although there are cost and accessibility benefits (i.e. font size changes) to using ebooks, there are many dangers to using ebooks. If you, like me, read ebooks, consider donating to your local public library or donating anonymously to authors.
