If it helps any, this was my experience in the US -- I was able to "drop off" aka donate one copy of my book at a local library because I really lived in the area. Being "local" seemed to be the key. I exchanged a few emails with the librarian ahead of time and then scheduled a date/time to meet and drop off my book. I included a one-page cover sheet with a few book details and my contact information. Once my book was in the library system, any of the other same-county libraries could borrow it. They were very specific about taking only one copy of my book as shelf space is extremely limited.

Good luck!! And yes, as Theodore said, ask about hosting a talk at the library.
