In Britain, the public library will usually have all dictionaries in the reference section, and are not for lending. You may find some dictionaries that are in a lending section. So there is not a hard and fast rule. All my searches are done on line, so my small collection of printed dictionaries are gathering dust on my shelves.

What is a paperless library?

A paperless library refers to a digital library (or e-library), where users can borrow library materials electronically. For example: instead of having printed books on shelves, a paperless library collection would have ebooks available for users to download and read. Items are still borrowed, so access to a borrowed ebook will still expire after a certain period of time (e.g. after three weeks after being signed out).
