I didn't realise there was an audio book library either so I've also made a note of that. The annual fee doesn't surprise me though - we dont get too much laid on by the government in the UK these days I'm afraid.
Thank you so much for taking the time,

Ooh, just got beaten to the info re the library! It does seem to depend on the council, but worth asking - even when they do charge, it's usually quite small.
Also, it's worth keeping an eye out for offers - for instance, I got 7 John Le Carré books free in an offer advertised in one of the newspapers, and there was another similar offer with the Guardian. Moneysavingexpert usually posts them, so it's worth signing up for the weekly email. There's a 'free' MP3 player (£4.50 inc P&P, or £3.65 if you pick the cheaper option) in the Mail ATM:
