I took a road trip yesterday and got library cards for Solano County, Alameda County, Contra Costa County, and San Francisco Public Library. SFPL and Contra Costa have epub ebooks, so those two libraries alone made the trip worth it. Contra Costa also gives me access to the Northern California Digital library, ALSO making the trip worth it. I have gone through the fiction and non-fiction collections at all 3 and added a ton of books to my list. I shouldn't need to buy ANY ebooks for a LONG time. The Solano and Alameda have collections on Netlibrary, and I'm still going through those collections. Those two don't seem to have a very good collection. Which is rather disappointing. But I passed right by both libraries, so I really didn't go out of my way to get them.
