These publishers call for the destruction of the 1.5 million digital books that Internet Archive makes available to our patrons. This form of digital book burning is unprecedented and unfairly disadvantages people with print disabilities. For the blind, ebooks are a lifeline, yet less than one in ten exists in accessible formats. Since 2010, Internet Archive has made our lending library available to the blind and print disabled community, in addition to sighted users. If the publishers are successful with their lawsuit, more than a million of those books would be deleted from the Internet’s digital shelves forever. -- [Libraries lend books, and must continue to lend books: Internet Archive responds to publishers’ lawsuit](https://blog.archive.org/2020/07/29/internet-archive-responds-to-publishers-lawsuit/)
