I'm in the U.S. and our only *fee* is for a library replacement card...$1.00, I believe, but that could vary by state. (And, as others have mentioned, the subsidizing through property taxes).
I'd also be willing to pay a fee that went directly to the digital portion of the library, but I think the suggestions of 'means-testing' might actually end up costing more than it saved.
I've memberships to two county and one city library ... and I've looked into maybe obtaining membership in out-of-state libraries but haven't actually acted on it yet. Of course, for those, I'd for sure expect to pay a fee.
