Educational institutions get a $20 discount per iPad when purchased in bundles of 10. See posts further up for links.

Asserting something is so, does not make it so. It's simply your opinion.
Yes, I saw the link. So you conclude from a link for generic apple discounts for education, that this is how much the library in question paid? That's quite a huge leap in logic. Contracts are subject to negotiation and prices vary from contract to contract. For example, I know that one of my co-workers got a bigger discount that than on an Apple computer since his wife is a teacher and gets the discount negotiated by her school district. I reiterate, unless you know the contracted price, you don't know how much the library paid for the iPads. They may have gotten a much better deal, or they could have gotten a lousy deal.
