I'm lucky enough to belong to three of the largest libraries in the country, so I have absolutely no need to pay for an out-of-area membership to another library.
But as others have pointed out, not everyone is lucky enough to live in a city or county that funds its libraries to the same level that mine do. For these folks, they have no choice but to pay for an out-of-area library if their local library doesn't have what they want.
