As I mentioned in my earlier post, U.S. veterans and active duty can get a free library card from the Free Library of Philadelphia. You don't have to be a Pennsylvania resident. Being a senior (65+) also qualifies for a free card.

Army, Navy, and Air Force libraries also have access to OverDrive. Here's a link to search for libaries with OverDrive accounts: http://search.overdrive.com/classic/.

In Ohio, any public library that takes state money as part of its budget has to allow any Ohio resident to get a library card. It's a nice benefit, although they all require some kind of regular verification of address. The system I belong to so I can have a CLEVNET card requires me to renew it annually. Luckily, it's just down the street from where my Mom lives, so I just pop in when I've up visiting her.
Good to know! I'd like to get hooked up with CLEVNET, but I never (well rarely) get far enough north. For now, I have to settle for the SEO Library Consortium and the Ohio Ebook Project. I wouldn't want to rely on them solely, but they're a nice addition to my sources for reading material. And my local Library doesn't require annual renewals that I know of.

Did he need to send proof that he is a veteran?

Go to Free Library of Philadelphia's website here. Check the "new" button where it says "Reason for Registration," press Next, and then you'll be given these choices:

I live, work, go to school, or pay taxes in the city of Philadelphia
I am 65 years old or older
I have an Access PA sticker from another Pennsylvania library
I am a veteran or member of the Armed Services
none of the above

Choose the applicable category and there are just a few more screens where you'll enter your information. It's easy! They'll send your library card in the mail, and it takes 5 to 10 days.

I'm glad everyone is starting to get access now. Both of the libraries I'm a member of have kindle access now. I'm very happy. I've already checked out and returned one library book. Between the free daily books, lendle, and now the library, I'm a very happy camper.
