just as much as we aren't machines, so aren't doctors

Medical libraries are extremely important in hospitals simply because doctors are not robots. They would need to have information about their patients documented and always readily accessible.
The purpose for this is so that in the case of an emergency, any doctor would have all of the necessary information about the patient that they would need, whether the patient is theirs or whether the doctor is filling in for the patient's original doctor.
Just that fact alone is a very important reason for doctors to have access to medical libraries.
