Print is such a stable medium that I suppose it would be nice to know that the articles are archived somewhere in print, preferably several places. But it's so much easier to find and transport electronic articles that it's hard to imagine why we'd want to continue to take up library storage space with paper copies of black and white mostly text documents.
Maybe there could be some kind of distributed archive system where institutions agree among themselves about which paper "backups" will be stored where?
