I really don't know why libraries bother with offering services that aren't easily accessible to people. Our library has Borrowbox for e-books and audio books only...

You can't read the library's e-books on kindle.

You can't stream audio books direct from the website, you have to download them on to your laptop and faff around with the file, or you have to have a phone. It should be simple to listen to an audio book, espeaically since most of the people who want to listen to audio books are blind/have difficulty with their eye sight. It's not a format that was made for on the go non disabled people, though they can take advantage of it if they want.

I genuineingly feel sorry for the blind person who constantly gets discriminated against because shops, taxis, cafes, etc, don't like their guide dog because you can't have a simple library service that's accessible.

It feels like library services always have a small amount of content in one service, a small amount in another, etc... And they are all separate and all difficult to figure out :')
