Like Deskisamess, my library is part of a consortium. I think this is a good thing for smaller cities/counties where any one of them on its own can't maintain a large collection.
For the OP - maybe you can find out if any counties (or larger cities) near you allow non-residents to get a library card?
In my case, the counties adjacent to mine are already part of the same consortium so there's no point in my traveling for one of their cards. But this may not be the case in your area.
