RIP Card Catalog

There could be a high-level trivia question from this
The final shipment was bound for Concordia College in Bronxville, N.Y., where librarians use the cards as a backup to an online catalog.

Among the last cards was a book of Disney’s Sleeping Beauty and a DVD of The Hunger Games: Catching Fire.

I wonder how many students today even know what a card catalog is?

Oddly enough, total number of different visitors to our local library is down, but total number of contacts is up. I hope I'm not typical of the library customer who's responsible, although I may be. I've been there at least a dozen times this year looking up stuff about the books my book clubs are reading, or just checking out the book if it's not one I want to keep. I'd like it to be students, but I don't think it is.
