Library Exchange for Epub/pdf Books?

I was wondering if MR members could do some sort of library exchange for epub books to find stuff they are looking for.

When you take out an epub or pdf, you are given a .acsm (adobe content server manager) file to download. You open this file in Adobe Digital Editions which then downloads the file. If I took out a book and emailed someone the .acsm file without opening it myself, I believe their ADE would download the book with the proper time restrictions.

That way we could get books from libraries we don't belong to. Of course it will only work if people all help each other out.

I'm willing to give it a try, if someone wants a book from either the Henderson or Las Vegas library systems:

http://mypubliclibrary.lib.overdrive.com/
http://ebooks.lvccld.org/

Both have sadly limited epub offerings, but Las Vegas has a ton of pdfs.
