Where are there ebook libraries??

Now that profjulie has discovered how to read library ebooks with her Cybook Gen3, people may be looking for ebook libraries (elibraries) where they can check out ebooks.

There has been some talk on this BLOG about "clevnet" which seems to be restricted to libraries in the Cleveland Ohio (USA) area. However since electrons can easily travel worldwide, is there any reason to restrict ebook check out to geographical areas? Are there any elibraries that are open to the general public, regardless of where they live? Does anyone know of cooperative efforts of elibraries across geo-political boundries?

I live in north Alabama and have not found any elibraries where fiction ebooks can be checked out.

It would be interesting to compile a list of elibraries along with their check out restrictions.
