I got that last week on a couple of new books I tried to put a hold on. When I tried a hold this week on one of the books, it went through (I was hold 26 of 26). I assumed it was a bizarre publisher restriction on how many holds could be on a book at once.

HarperCollins only lets a book be loaned out 26 times before the library has to buy another copy, this was one of theirs, so maybe they wouldn't let any hold be processed beyond 26 unless the library bought another copy. The message should really say "Some of our titles are only available to loan 26 times, so the library needs to order another copy before more loans are allowed, please check back later.".
