Digital vs physical course readers for law school — what do you prefer?
I’m starting my first semester of International and European Law at the University of Groningen, and I’m currently ordering my course materials.
For one of my courses, the university provides “readers” containing the required material. I can choose between a digital reader and a physical printed copy.
I’m genuinely not sure which I’d prefer, since I’ve never really studied from this kind of law reader before.
The digital version for all three readers would cost €57.76 total, while the physical versions would be €62.25 total, so the difference is only about €4.50.
I’ll have a laptop, and potentially a tablet, so digital is definitely an option. I’m mainly wondering what is actually more practical for studying law.
For those studying law: do you prefer digital or physical course readers, and why? Would you recommend getting these particular readers physically, or going digital?
