Sample Answer:

In the modern era, with the evolution of technology, looking for necessary information from the internet is more convenient. From my view, despite the advantages of online information, I believe that libraries have a crucial place in a student’s life.

On one side, there are obvious reasons why online learning provides numerous benefits. Firstly, it is a well known fact that the information on the internet is boundless. For example, lot of books, articles and useful ideas are posted on websites and blogs to help people access them for free. Secondly, as long as one has working internet connection on their smart gadgets, one can get almost all the data, whereas libraries have a fixed running time per day.

On the other hand, there are various reasons why libraries hold a better place in education. Primarily, lot of libraries store various books and articles which was written by many great souls of antiquity. Also libraries provide a much better learning environment with quietness and reliable data in the highest quality and reliable books. One great example for this is if the student needs a place for studying and discussing the subject, libraries are the best choice.

Although, I recognise that accessing information online is much efficient and improves rapidly the warning process of students, I would point out that libraries maintain their positions in our life, particularly learning of students.
