The author concludes that printed books likely will not be soon replaced by books in electronic formats, even though electronic formats are more convenient for academics. This is because bookstores and libraries will offer books in the format the general public wants, which wonβt be an electronic format.
The author assumes that the preferences of bookstores and libraries will be sufficient to ensure the continued production of printed books. Otherwise, the type of books they want to stock wouldn't make a difference.
