So all public libraries that currently lend out e-readers should be sued then according to the president of the National Federation of the Blind: "They should be purchasing accessible e-book reading devices and demanding that their vendors provide them, not perpetuating the status quo by purchasing inaccessible technology and needlessly relegating their blind and print-disabled patrons to separate and unequal service."

Seriously, why are they so mad at libraries, they obviously do not have the capability to produce such devices. The Free Library does provide devices for their blind patrons, blame and sue the manufacturers not the libraries.
