The LWN summary condensed the content too much for me to get
the point. After reading the article, I got it:

Librarians always need to deal with copyright issues and this
is especially difficult when it comes to software. FLOSS makes
their lives easier. However, before they make software available
for copying they have to be sure that the software on the CD
really is free, and thus they have to acquire it from a trusted
source.
