Personally, I find the excuse of lack of availability not valid. I personally have less access now than when I was a kid. In elementary school, we were in the school library at least once a week. In Middle school, it more or less was the same. It didn't get until high school that trips to the library wasn't mandatory, but I still walked by one every day. Now as an adult I can drive to the library, and have ereaders and the like, but I still have to put out the effort. I wasn't right at one every day.
