Moreover, in terms of Miami specifically (since it was noted above), the MDPLS (Miami-Dade Public Library System)'s page is easily viewable here.
Searching for "American Girl" here brings up many results stating "on shelf at one or more locations", and as of lately they'll even note which locations in the results.
Through MDPLS you can Get a Library card here:
"eCards are free for residents and property owners in the Miami‑Dade Library taxing district, which includes most of Miami‑Dade County except for Bal Harbour Village, Hialeah, Homestead, Miami Shores, North Miami, North Miami Beach and the Town of Surfside.
Residents of Hialeah, Homestead, North Miami and North Miami Beach are still eligible to receive a free Miami‑Dade Public Library eCard (and vice‑versa) due to a borrowing agreement between Miami‑Dade County and these municipal libraries. Residents who live in Bal Harbour Village, Miami Shores, the Town of Surfside or outside of Miami‑Dade County may obtain a non‑resident library card for an annual fee of $65.00."
"eCards are available to residents of all ages; however, patrons that are 16 years old and younger need to confirm parental authorization prior to applying."
Via the Interlibrary Loan page: "With a valid library card patrons can request books, articles and audiovisual materials from a vast network of libraries at no cost to them. We always try to find other libraries that lend their items for free; however, this is not always possible and loan charges may apply. Patrons will be notified through their online account if any charges apply. We will not proceed with the request until the patron notifies us that they accept responsibility for any charges.
Patrons with reciprocal library cards and non‑verified addresses are ineligible for the service.
In order to comply with the American Library Association's National Interlibrary Loan Code, items published within the past 12 months, reference works owned by the Library System, and whole issues of magazines or newspapers cannot be requested."
They also have a "Libraries @ Your Door Home Delivery Service"!:
"Can’t make it to the library? Use our Libraries @ Your Door Home Delivery Service to have books and other library materials mailed directly to your home for free. Simply log in to your library account online or call your local branch to request items.
Once you're ready to return your items, simply drop them off at any library location, use the book drops or pay return postage to mail them back."
