It is by no means certain that the Hathi libraries are qualified to make reproductions and distributions as Authorized Entities under Section 121 of the Copyright Act. Who says so? The NFB President (and Member of the Bar of the US Supreme Court) Dr. Marc Maurer in 2009 written testimony for the US Copyright Office wrote that there is no authoritative support for the interpretation that libraries and University Disability Services offices do so qualify. Just as NFB says above it objects to the Authors Guild request to have the entire Hathi Library taken down, it may also be a stretch under ADA and Section 107 (Fair Use) as in the Motion above that the entire holdings of the Hathi libraries should be digitized and be made readily available should any student who is blind or has some other qualifying disability choose to request a particular volume.
ADDENDUM: The following is the classic and oft-cited sentence from the 1976 Copyright Act Legislative Hearings: SECTION 107. FAIR USE While the making of multiple copies or phonorecords of a work for general circulation requires the permission of the copyright owner, a problem addressed in section 710 of the bill, the making of a single copy or phonorecord by an individual as a free service for a blind persons would properly be considered a fair use under section 107.
