Referencing
Using a reference work allows you to retry a Knowledge skill check as a full-round action that triggers attacks of opportunity.
Research
Using a library you can cross-reference many sources and gain a more complete picture of an issue than any single book could give. With 20 minutes of work you can make a Knowledge check with a +10 bonus, and you can retry this check. It takes a full day of research to take 20 this way. The library must contain books on relevant topics. Libraries can also contain information that simply is not available otherwise.
