They serve 30,000+ libraries in 100+ countries according to Wikipedia, sounds like it might involve a lot of staff

They might be leeches but on the other hand you might be underestimating how much work goes into trying to keep library databases accurate

    I don't know why your getting so many downvotes because there seems to be a level of truth to what you say. They supposedly have 1,334 employees, which would make an average wage of 120k... But you have to notice it says "fringe benefits" which would include health insurance and retirement, which is $20k+ just for the health insurance and tax stuff and then if they do an employee 5% match that's another 5k bringing the avg salary down to 95k.
