The University Library: Functions and Opportunities Available to Purchase

COMPUTERS are, in principle, the same as any other technical invention when it comes to practical applications. They either serve the purpose or they do not. We use typewriters rather than pens because they are faster, provide a better and more legible copy, allow additional copies to be made without extra labour, are more economical in paper, and so on. There are some purposes for which none of these factors is valid, and for these purposes we still write rather than type.
