I too think publishers are being short-sighted. As the price of ereaders comes down, I think they will soon be in the hands of most school children. But just because the kid has an ereader, doesn't mean they can afford books. Unless those children get used to reading for pleasure from the library, the publishers are not going to be able to market to them as adults. Again, this is from my experience. I could possibly have gotten an ereader for Christmas, but there would have been no money for books.
