I discovered using overdrive to download library books a few months ago and it's been great for making it possible for me to borrow library books. But, I have a question about how the hold system works.
I have had a particular book on hold for a while and first in line with "approximately 2 weeks wait" for nearly 6 weeks now. I assume that the previous reader is renewing the book because they'd like to keep hold of it. Is there a limit to how much you can do this? In my old library, of you called to renew a book and there was a waitlist, you'd be allowed one renew, but then told it had to be returned. Does similar happen with Over Drive? Or can they renew indefinitely?
