Walk in, scan your card, and you'll check out a chair at the library.
Sound a tad revolutionary?
Nah, that's not revolutionary. What is revolutionary is having that chair follow you around the library like a good little puppy.

Oooooh! I don't want a chair that'll just follow me around! I want one that can drive me around so I don't have to use my own legs like a chump!
And it should have those articumulated arms so it can more easily reach those uppers shelves.
And crack me me open a Duff when I want one.
And rip open bags of chips.
And all you've got is one that will follow me around like puppy?! Hello! I've already got two kids and a dog who'll do that anyway!
Save the easily offended: ban everything.
