I have library cards for nine different library districts now. I am a resident, and taxpayer, in only one of those districts. I do not pay for the other eight out-of-district cards either.
But all those eight other districts willingly issue cards to non-district-residents, they even mention on their websites that they do this if you read the entire small print of their terms of service. The one qualification is that you must live in the same state as the library district. But you don't have to live in the library district itself or pay taxes there.
I feel lucky to have this benefit. I can't believe that my state would be the only one to have something like this, so it might be worth checking to see if your state has it too.
