Doing a quick Google:

Quote:
an average or estimation of cost per typical American taxpayer, suggests to ignore such differences. The current figure should be about $40.00 per capita.
So nonprofit libraries: $40 for a year. $40 / 12 = $3.33? I don't know about other sources of income?
KU $119 for an annual subscription, $9.99 (and going up to $11.99) for a monthly subscription? There may be discounts?

And libraries support other things: pbooks, DVDs, movie streaming, CDs, music streaming, puppets, 3D printers, events, ... ?
