The "Free Library of Philadelphia",(FLOP) which has an extensive collection of ebooks, has raised their fee from $15 to $35 per year for non-residents. Quite an increase, percent-wise, but, still a bargain if you read a lot.
I asked at Sumter/Pinellas library last week about ebooks. They say coming soon, perhaps after the first of the year. I didn't get a warm, fuzzy feeling that their collection was going to be very extensive. Time will tell.
When my FLOP subscription expires next March, we'll see if the Sumter fee/offering is a better alternative.
