A library newspaper search would have the advantage of a) requiring too much effort to be used in a five second snap judgement, and b) providing context. By the time you get there you've invested effort in a candidate; it's very different than skimming the top Google search results and deciding to chuck their resume in the trash based on what people with the same name as them appear to have done.
