That's due to the different DRM used. Adobe's ADEPT DRM used to lend epubs and PDFs allows for early return. Mobi's DRM does not.
Be careful with early return, though. People have reported that too many early returns gets them flagged in the system, as Overdrive or the library assumes you must be pirating (check out, rip off the DRM, check back in to free up more checkout slots).
