Can't resist chiming in. My two public library cards get me access to the NH State and Merrimack Valley (Mass) elibraries and they're dire. I've already read everything of any possible interest to me at both places and they're not expanding their collections rapidly. Non-fiction is especially poorly represented; mostly a lot of self-help books.
I figure it will get better, but in the long run and not the short term. As for now, when discussing ereader options with those who are about to take the plunge, I counsel them that the elibrary factor is not significant.
