"Distance" digital media libraries
I just learned about OverDrive... Sadly, I live in a remote area of the US and there are no participating libraries in my area. I understand that I must have a library card from the participating library, and of course, some libraries won't offer cards to non-residents.

Question: Do libraries ever issue cards "remotely?" From the library sources listed in OverDrive.. would any offer a card to a non-resident?

Free Library of Philadelphia. Just raised their fee to $35 a year for a nonresident card.

Free Library of Philadelphia and The Singapore Library are the two most mentioned around here.

Here's the thread for the Singapore Library.
