Hope you can answer one o' two of the above.

Found where my account info is:
https://brooklyn.bibliocommons.com/user/account
(I don't expire until June. There are so many more books @ Brooklyn than in MD's OD!)
and the basic renew info:

No they do not notify you at all. I would say to contact them a week before it expires to renew you will need to send them a email and attach your Acceptable ID again. I guess they do eventual get back with you and add a $50 fine for you to pay like last time. Right now I am waiting for them to get back with me.
I don't think your holds go anywhere as the account is just locked out for now till you renew however if something comes available while you are locked out you will miss that book as holds are only 3 days once it's available unless there is no waiting list then it stays up there a little longer.
You renewal date is one month after you got activated. I sub on December 10th of 2012 and my account expired Jan 10, 2014.
