Fun fact: public libraries across Victoria get State government funding as well as local, so membership is open to anyone with a Victorian address. And most if them let you join online without going in.

There are 50 Vic library services, join a few or all of them and get all the sweet ebooks you want. Some have heaps, some not many, somebody will probably have what you want.

This! I have City of Melbourne and Yarra Libraries. Usually there is something between the two, though I do still find them limiting if you’re after particular authors.
