Friend,
It's a research-related topic or problem. If we don't talk about ethics and authenticity, then, Sci-Hub is a threat to publishers and repositories, not publications. Library deals only with publications. We should be worried when there are not publications.
No comment on Sci-Hub.
Thank you.

Copyright is not a divine right: Delhi HC
The court pointed out that if the facility of photocopying wasn’t available, students “instead of sitting in the comforts of their respective homes.... would be spending long hours in the library and making notes thereof”.
