With the ability to download almost anything (they’re still working on downloading foodstuffs) there is no reason to go to your community library. Or is there?

Certainly there is! Libraries are the oft-forgetten piracy centres of convience. No longer do you have to search BitTorrent sites for movies when you can get them legally.

CNet reminds us that libraries are a haven of free information:

Libraries are offering more free search services, database access, articles, photos, eBooks, audiobooks, music and museum passes than ever. Chances are you are buying, subscribing to, or stealing something you can get for free with a library card.
