There's nothing stopping people from reading the library ebooks on a PC or Mac; there are plenty of free readers for that purpose, and the process associated with that would be one step less (if I understand it correctly) than getting it onto the Nook.
Be that as it may, I will note that if the primary argument for buying a Nook is to read library books, the Nook is unlikely to solve Barnes & Noble's problem(s).
I am wondering at what point Amazon starts supporting ePub. They've been pretty consistent about reactive support (they lend books now, on almost exactly the same terms as the Nook). Maybe they'll never support ePub. *shrug*
the workarounds suck
