> The internet, at least intermittently and slowly -which is enough for books, is more accessible than public libraries.

No. The internet almost always costs the individual money to access, unlike public libraries. That means the internet is less accessible to low income people.

Also public libraries have evolved into one of the main ways that many people access the internet. It's foolish to advocate replacing public libraries with something that the public libraries actually provide for many of their patrons.

Not for everybody. I see a lot of poor and indigent people who are at the library using the desktops and loaner laptops to access the Internet.

Only if you ignore the cost of a device and service.
