There are not enough people interested in reading Kant or Plato in a foreign language to make the expense worthwhile for most libraries. If it was for me, public libraries would carry graduate-level math textbooks but I know that I am not going to find them there.
That being said, most college libraries will have the standard literature provided they have a department in that field. If your college has a Greek department, their library will most definitely have a Greek copy of Plato. If they have a philosophy department, you will most likely find Kant in German. However, if you want to read something more exotic in its original language, you might have to rely on online resources or buy the books yourself.
