This is precisely the same argument that got me into hot water here last
week and I will not participate further except to say that your librarian is
correct and that if you're going to break the law; no matter how technical
such lawbreaking may seem to be; don't tell anybody and don't talk about it
on a public list unless it's a hackers list dedicated to people who don't
respect the copyright law or who don't think it applies to them because
they're blind and, therefore, entitled.

I learned it from the NLS Librarian at the library in Sacramento. I told her
that I was going to read the files as text on Book Port and she said that
she didn't hear that. Also, it says on the Web-Braille sight that the files
cannot be converted into e-books and read as text. However, my Kurzweil
program let me download the .brf file as text without any problem.
