It looks to me like there is more discussion after the moderator post, and nothing was done?

There is also this thread (starting with post 230):

https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...ibrary&page=17

I reported the above thread (I think it was this thread) and nothing was done, so I was confused as to what is acceptable (which is why I started this thread).

Maybe another bullet item could be added in the guidelines about DRM and library books?
I don't see anything in the first mentioned thread after the moderator notice that discusses DRM and library books.

The second thread does seem to have one comment, but it was contradicted and the discussion didn't seem to encourage the attempt.


As for updating the guidelines. No, we can't cover every possible instance in the guidelines. Not enough people read them as it is, and if we make then even longer it's not going to help.

I would have thought is was fairly obvious that removing DRM from library books is not acceptable.
