That said, I dare say Mark Coker is getting a lot of heat over this, and that may have made him a bit over-sensitive.
Let me also say that I was very surprised to be "breaking" the news. I don't participate on a lot of writer groups anymore, but those folks are usually right on top of stuff like this--anything that involves book distribution. The books have supposedly been shipping to Overdrive for a while. I was checking every other week? or so and saw mine marked as shipped so checked for them. I've learned the hard way that just because Createspace says "shipped and available" doesn't mean they show in the Ingram database (or B&N and so on).

I found it interesting that overdrive said the librarians requested it. If they are working with some invisible number of librarians or relying on surveys...my librarians would probably love to be in on that!
