My library has kindles for checkout. They are pre-loaded with some classics and then there is a Kindle for I think 6 genres. They are pre-loaded with 20 to 25 books and obviously the books can be changed out. My library is also getting a color Nook and I forget what that will have on it--children's books? Something that is better with color, but I can't remember at this moment. There is one iPAD for checkout as well, also pre-loaded with some books and apps.
The universities nearby (UT and A&M) have had Kindles for checkout since very early days.
There is no issue with them not being usable by blind people that I know of. We have computers without braille, we have books with and without it, etc.
