So, a library agrees to a contract without thoroughly reading it, thoroughly understanding it, or knowing what they would be receiving. Not so much bait and switch as dumb library.

As far as restricting what titles are available, lets consider it from a different perspective. If I belong to a library that shares access with other regional libraries, and, because of this, my closest or 'home' library isn't allowed to duplicate ebooks that are already held by these other libraries, ebooks I ALREADY HAVE ACCESS TO, and must chose different ebooks, giving me, the patron, access to even MORE ebooks, how is this a bad thing?
