Also, I don't think libraries and the web is a fair comparison. Once they come out with OCR braille devices I can understand if you get sued for publishing a book which is useless in the device. But you cannot demand (nor would any court uphold such a demand) a library to carry braille versions of all books.

With the web, the story is entirely different, however. Braille converters and screen readers are commonly accessible. There is really no excuse for a website not to function in such a device.
