That's a damn shame. It invokes the same feelings as when I heard the National Museum of Iraq was looted and thousands of years of heritage was essentially destroyed. _refugee_ Lots ot things are digital but there are items at these libraries that haven't been digitized or won't be such as ancient family histories in the case of the Museum of Iraq.
