nwinter I am not sure what your problem is, but I usually browse the FLP page without logging in. When I find something I like I add it to the cart--that's where the sign in page appears. After typing in account number and pin I am able to check items out.
For those who are concerned about the collection size of FLP, you can always write to the librarians directly and ask them if they can acquire the titles you want. I usually check the overdrive site first. If an item has a "find at a library" icon, the FLP can almost always get it for you within a week (according to my experience, not sure if they can keep up the speed if more people suggest items). They are very helpful and I've suggested and happily borrowed more than ten titles so far (both audiobooks and ebooks). I hope more people can suggest books they think are good or interesting, because then we will have a respectable collection in FLP which everyone can benefit from.
As for waiting period of books, my longest wait so far was "Eat, love, and pray." I was 19th on the list when I joined the wait (which rarely happened. Usually there are less than 5 people waiting for the same books I am interested in) and got the title after waiting for about a month. If you keep enough books on your hold list, you can generally get something new to read every 2 or 3 days. I absolutely love the service of FLP, and would recommend it anytime without hesitation. (Thank you again, Almas!)
