I'm fine if you want to share my book with your friend or with a group of friends. However, library !== the entire world. Moreover, libraries buy book(s) so they can share more copies if there is a demand. Without authors getting paid for their work there won't be any books at all, except books from those authors who are willing to write them for free of charge. But I assume you don't like online libraries with free books online for some reason.

In many places in the US, anyone can get a card to a library. So, if everyone had that knowledge, it actually would mean the entire world. In the county I have my card with, they give a card number over the internet without any kind of address validation, so anyone willing to lie about their address can get a card there. I'm sure that's true for countless counties.
