Ahhh, that explains it. None of my libraries offer out-of-state cards; except one. It offers its card to a few counties in Oregon that border its territory.
edit: but then, that doesn't explain Orange County and Brooklyn. Both are major OverDrive libraries with over 60,000 and 40,000 ebooks respectively, and both allow out-of-state cards.
