All the ebooks I've checked out on Overdrive in the past were Adobe ebooks, which can be returned early, so I've always just left my default checkout period as 14 days.

A couple days ago, I checked out a couple of books in the Open Epub format. It's the weekend, so I've finished reading both books. There does not appear to be any way to return these books. In the Sony Reader program on my PC, the Return option is grayed out; on the Sony reader itself Return is missing from the book menu.

On my Overdrive library account, the books show as counting toward my 4-book limit.

Am I stuck with these books, and therefore limited in how many other books I can check out, for the next 12 days?
