As in public library? That's a repository, not a source.

Computer "library", i.e., where you've stored your findings on your
computer, or your personal library at home? Again, these are
repositories and not sources.

The books, documents, etc are the sources and the repository is where
they're kept.

If you get info from a website, the document on the website (i.e.,
index, transcription, etc) it gets a little trickier since the website
is kind of like a book that contains all these documents. But it's
also a repository becuase that's where all the information is stored.

The Comments in the Source could be used to indicate other resources
for the item that you're using. For example, you can find a census on
Heritage Quest, Ancestry, and other places so if you found it on
Ancestry, you could note that it's also available at.... listing other
sources.

A repository is included to indicate where *you* found the source.
Since the repository can be used for many sources, it wouldn't be
appropriate to indicate other repositories where the source might be
found in the Repository section.
