In Rochester, MN in the late 90s we charged $5.00 for a 30 day guest card,
mostly for (nonresident) people in town for Mayo Clinic who wanted email
access.

I have never heard of a library charging their own tax payers for this
basic service.

I am horrified enough by those of you who charge "rental fees" to check out
DVDs.

Good luck Sylvia.
