Wouldn't surprise me. Libraries are apparently powerless before publishers.
OTOH, introduce enough "friction" with new DRM in the free marketplace, and IF retailers decide that the support costs per book are putting them in the red, they will revolt, and they will NOT get a middle finger from the publishers like nerdy librarians do.
