I do. The BL is a national institution, and, like the NHS, would attract masses of free labour if they asked for it. There are volunteer developers and data scientists who work for charities in their spare time to help improve society.
Not everyone's so greedy that they must be compensated for every breath they take.

It's not that they are greedy. It is that well performed job takes time, years and years. It is not a firefighting job you can do in your off hours on a weekend. We wouldn't ask the caretaker to work for free, we wouldn't ask the director to work for free, we wouldn't ask the desk clerks to work for free, so why are we asking IT people to work for free?
