I'll never downplay a library. They're wonderful. But I'm talking more about how we make the Fediverse more and more valuable. Yes go to the library and then share what you find on the Fediverse.
Comment on Stop Internet Searching and Start Asking on Fediverse?

What's quicker: searching bad info sources online or searching better info sources at the library?
Also OP didn't say it had to be quick

Wikipedia is pretty reliable. It’s not perfect but for most things it does the job, and is up to date.
