Onderwerp: Cheating?

Hi, I have a fundamental question:
We are here playing some sort of correspondence chess, right? It is clear, that no computer programs (Fritz, ChessMaster etc.) are allowed, no doubt. But is it ok to consult books and/or databases, especially in the opening, or would it be considered as cheating?
If doing my moves from home, I'm looking often into NCO/BCO and I don't think, I'm doing something against the rules. But I'm asking the audience to be sure (and eventually to stop it).
