I want to reach your area to finally one day visit Bass' Strand;

you should come to Europe one day and have the experience of free access to the shelves :)

Is there a research library (e.g. more than a million volumes) in Europe that you can browse most/all the collection of without even having to provide an ID card?

In my experience, Europe tends to require mandatory ID for things in general much more often than the US does.
