I've almost never been able to get a book on my Hold list checked out when it becomes available. I usually log in about once a day, and that doesn't help. There's also no email notice about held books becoming available.

Usually the books are simply gone from my Hold list. Today, one of the books on hold showed up as available, but when I clicked Check Out, I got an error message saying that I couldn't get it, and that maybe someone else got it.

This thing is so not ready for prime time!

Whatever problems there might be with Overdrive, at least everything seems to work as it's supposed to.
