I live in a very small town in which my library has purchased into a consortium with other libraries in the state. They have a very small selection but hopefully it will grow. I waited only 2 weeks for my first book to come available and I'm thinking I'm 4th in line for the other that I've requested.

You already got your answer regarding the question on how to return early, however, regarding your other question, that on a Libre, the book is yours forever, the answer is, sort of. I read about someone else with a Libre a while back (I don't remember where). When you sync your Libre to the computer and ADE starts up, it will go in and "expire" the book on your device. However, if you never turn on ADE, then you can theoretically keep the book on your device forever and continue reading it. Though of course you'd lose the ability to borrow from the library then. On the good side, that means that if you don't sync too often you can "return" the book and then continue reading it until you're ready to sync, at which time it will expire.
