It is based on the number of holds (or on your place in the hold queue, if you already have the book on hold) and the number of copies that the library has. It also takes into account the release date for pre-release books.

The wait-in-weeks is only an estimate. The average loan period is estimated to be 2.5 weeks since some people return books early or have a shorter loan period set for their account.
