Another concerns equity and accessibility:
removal of more than 500,000 books from public access is a serious blow to lower-income families, people with disabilities, rural communities, and LGBTQ+ people, among many others.
so low-income people in the argument are pretty obvious
how about people with disabilities or rural communities? why are they there? do they have easier access to libraries than bookstore?
and what the hell are lgbt people doing there? do they read disproportionately more more than average non-lgbt population, or why are they singled out?
seems like this whole paragraph is just “lets throw in some minorities, no one can talk back at that” lame argument
this text was primarily about digital archives, so i don’t think this applies much
this does make sense, ok then.
