I thought most university libraries were digitizing most of their material now?
When I was in university (early 1990s) most of my "book budget" went to photocopying... we didn't have a lot of textbooks in the urban geography program, but relied very heavily on journals. I'm sure most of them have digital access now, but I must have gone through dozens and dozens of copy cards back then (and I kept most of the articles in boxes for a long time, but they were eventually recycled)
