How does one verify a fact? Does it really only take 2 minutes to 'thoroughly' verify the validity? And why limit oneself to librarians?
What I fail to see, is how this adds facts to wikidata. Best case it adds metadata about the validity of the claims. I do agree that that would be nice to have, of course.

If 1 librarian in the USA added one fact or verified / qualified it per work day in their spare 2 mins a day.
119,729 Libraries in USA x 1 Librarian minimum per Library with internet access...mostly :-) x 251 work days in a year = 30,051,979 MILLION facts that could be added or verified
