[Eril-l] Printless libraries in academic institutions

[Kathleen Folger]

At the University of Michigan, our Taubman Health Sciences Library removed
the majority of their print volumes as part of a major renovation.  Here's
an article
<https://www.detroitnews.com/story/news/education/2015/08/04/university-michigan-opens-bookless-medical-library/31137539/>
from
the Detroit News after the library reopened in 2015.
