I haven't checked to see which one is closest to here that has them, but that is always a possibility. It's called a PA access card, and they put a little blue sticker on the back of it.
Yeah, I go to Lehigh. If you should happen to come up with a good solution let me know.

The closest in state library on the list is in Lancaster, but I'm not sure I can actually get a card from them.

Well, I think the general rule is you either have to live, work or own property wherever the library is. Some libraries also offer the ability to just pay a one time or yearly fee. Right? Perhaps I'm missing something, though.

Ah. Lehigh uses netlibrary but no epub option here.
