Hold expires after - 3 days
# Items in eCart at once[*] - 17
Lending Period [**] - 7 to 14 days
Free Library of Philadelphia
# Checkouts - 10
# Holds - 10
Hold expires after - 3 days
# Items in eCart at once[*] - 12

National Library Board (Singapore Public Library)
# Checkouts - 4
# Holds - 2
Hold expires after - 2 days
# Items in eCart at once[*] - 4

* for all libraries, items in the eCart are removed if not checked out after 30
minutes
