This is where I am.

FLP has.become a not very good value, IMO, unless you have no viable alternative at all. After several months this past spring and summer when they bought nothing at all, they've been adding books very slowly, it seems to me. For the long-time user who has already cherry-picked its catalogue, it's hard to make a case for buying a card. I'm lucky; I got an FLP card for my mother when seniors were free and so far, she seems to be grandfathered. But if it got pulled, I'd wait a while before rejoining, if I did at all.

I've never had any luck with requests to FLP. My other two OverDrive libraries are more amenable.
