Can this type of "book" be read on my computer? Some Windows' version of a reader like there is a kindle-desktop application?
Is stripping the drm required if I wanted to read on my Kindle3?

Your library probably provides some software to read the ebooks on your computer. You can read .PDF files on the Kindle but yes you would need to remove the drm protection to read them on your Kindle. ePub files cannot be read on a kindle so you would need to remove the drm and also convert the file to a kindle friendly format like .mobi
