Reading physical books is more preferable for me too than using a screen, with the latter, there's always some form of distraction lurking beneath. I think libraries are still needed in this digital world, it's the best place to take a journey through history, especially culturally :)
True, you touched on a point I forgot to mention. Reading on phones still has the potential distraction of notifications and such, while with a physical book, that doesn't happen. And libraries, well, it's like entering a parallel world focused solely on enjoying a good read.
