I would have to disagree. It is not technically difficult to get library books onto a Kindle. If someone is technically savy enough to negotiate their way to the library web page, search for a book, then down load it, I don't think it is at all beyond their abilities to do a drm/conversion and load it onto their Kindle (no matter their age, JSWolf!!). The ethics of this are personal, and since this is an international forum, I think the legality is difficult to presume.
While it is certainly fair to discuss all of these aspects, I agree with KindleKitten that a flat "NO" is inappropriate.
If we can agree to disagree on the 'trivial' concept, I'm buying
