Yes, we as a society should pay for the very things librarians do (or at least any librarian worth her/his salt)

Seth Godin has a post on the future of the library:
What we need to spend the money on are leaders, sherpas and teachers who will push everyone from kids to seniors to get very aggressive in finding and using information and in connecting with and leading others.

Here's one response, which includes a comparison between the local public library and Barnes & Noble. The Analog Divide has one that's pretty much aligned with mine.
