The question is if you should be removing DRM from loans. A couple of quotes from Apprentice Alf's blog years back:

Quote:
Please only use these tools for gaining full access to your own ebooks for archiving/conversion/convenience. De-drmed ebooks should not be uploaded to open servers, torrents, or other methods of mass distribution. No help will be given to people doing such things. Authors, retailers and publishers all need to make a living, so that they can continue to produce books for us to read. Don’t be a parasite.

Support for removing DRM from rented or library ebooks is not provided.
My personal choice is that if I do not "own" the ebook, I do not remove DRM. I don't prefer to avoid the own vs. license timesink.
