The impact of digitization of information has changed the world in many ways and it is especially significant when it comes to digitization of literature. Any and every maj0r invention in history always has upsides and downsides. Some come with more upsides, whereas some come with more downsides. However, when talking about this in the realm of literature, the topic is highly debatable. Words can now be accessed almost anywhere in the world. And if you consider the act of digital piracy of books, which is a whole other discourse in itself, what once was a privilege that could be only afforded by some has turned into a luxury that many can enjoy. Digitization also increased the freedom of expression, and the internet eradicates (for the better or worse) over censorship. It enabled more voices to be heard, the ones that were historically oppressed and resulted in a new wave of literature unlocking a new perspective for millions of audience. Also, digitization increased the number of books published every year, and thus also maiming the average quality of books.
