"..but not everyone has access at home. Anyone can go to the library." I think this is a point that gets forgotten a lot when people talk about the value of libraries. They're a resource that helps many people in need of computer and internet access. And the information literacy skills taught can change someone's life! Right on!

Publishing there and similar places works best to drive traffic to some site you own, some site where you are trying to sell something. If you want to write and earn money for it, I suggest that you check out Hub Pages, Info Barrel, Squidoo, and maybe Triond. All of these have many articles about how to make a living from the Internet, forums where you can ask specific questions and get good advice, and other good helps for the inexperienced. Ezine, like Articles Base, will not pay you. You can make money one way or another from all the rest. Constant Content has a very different business model from any of the others. My personal favorite is Hub Pages, mostly because of the control it gives me over the layout and appearance of my articles. All of the others are favorites of lots of other writers. Click on any of the links on this page, explore the sites, and see what meets your needs. Articles Base, at least, will not pay you for your writings.
