Many OverDrive libraries allow patrons to make recommendations for books to be acquired. Making a recommendation puts you on the hold list if that book is acquired by the library later.

So for popular authors it is best to recommend a book as soon as it is added to OverDrive, probably well before your specific library orders it.
My local library's ebook page allows suggestions to be made. I like that. And of course Amazon allows its customers to click that they'd like to read a given book on Kindle which also adds the chance that if a book isn't already available as an ebook it might become so sooner because you and X many others have requested it from them.
