Have you considered leaving this society where people value libraries for one without taxes? It might suit you better.

As per tools, you benefit from having a community that doesn’t needlessly spend on tool duplication or rental, which ultimately concentrates local wealth. But that’s an economic argument when the real one is that it’s a desirable service for cost, convenience and community spirit.

To be fair, the library lovers took over the government from the no tax party, so you are bound to see some friction. No taxes lost their country, and are frustrated.
In US, at least, libraries operate on the level of municipalities and counties. Of which the "no tax party" still controls plenty.
