So a book that the school district has one copy of in a high school and another book that the school has no copies of qualifies as being made accessible to students by the school. Perhaps the students could manage to access the books online while using the school district's network. If so, that likely violated the school district's term of use which, in my local school districts, the parents and students get to agree to at the start of each school year.
I'm reminded of a parent in this area whom ended up with egg on their face after complaining about their child being exposed to pornography in school and demanding the book another student had read the racy passages from be removed from the school. As the parent of the child in question pointed out, most of the passages were from the Song of Solomon from a copy of the bible which the church member's child had brought to school with them. I seem to remember that it was the lines about "my sister, my spouse", "my sister, my love, my dove, my undefiled" and "thy two breasts are like..." that were found objectionable. The other objectionable passages were involved Lot and his daughters. Lot, you remember him? The gentleman who offered his daughters to the mob to leave him alone and later in the story got both daughters pregnant. But then Lot was a just and/or righteous man according to Peter so that's all okay.
