The screen has a glass substrate, but the e-ink and light-guide layers are on top of the glass, so the glass gives no protection from scratching.

Having said that, I have used my Glo for two years without a cover or screen protector and have never had a scratch (I do use a hard case when transporting it though), so the layers on top of the glass must be fairly hard.
