Yep. While doing my dissertation work and looking at other elements of info transfer, I found out that the people in my study were BIG users of paper, even tho there had been paper reduction initiatives and info tech was easily available. They apologized for having paper, but said they needed it.
The primary reason? Average age of 50 and an increasing inability to read large amounts of info on the computer monitor. Secondarily, there were the affordances of paper - such as being able to edit, write notes to self or someone else, stick in the briefcase to read on the commute home, etc.
I actually ended up spending a good deal of dissertation space talking about paper use in the the so-called 'paperless' office.
I try to stay paperless. :-) You should see my office! Screens all over the place, no paper. LOL!
