Remember The Old Way To Research?

When I was in school and college, before the internet, the way we researched topics for reports was through the good old fashioned "Britannica Encyclopedia". I would go to any library and those were the first books I would pick up to start doing my research. Now, all I have to do and all students have to do to start researching is go online and use any search engine to start doing research. Libraries still do have the Britannica Encyclopedia but I just wonder how many really use it at all anymore?

I don't see them used very much. But at Hutterite colonies they are used as they do not use the internet

Yes, I am sure they would use them, not having the internet.
