I don't know about "every" library, but libraries are about more than
just books, and librarians are not unaware of the wonders of databases
in our modern digital age. For those of us that use libraries, I
encourage you to familiarize yourselves with the collections your
library may be able to provide access to online. I've certainly relied
on my library privileges for such sources many times in the course of
editing Wikipedia, particularly news archives (including the Wall Street
Journal).
