If your libraries are nearing the end of their fiscal years, they may be running short of funds.
This is a good point. If your library allows it*, you could try searching for the book to recommend it. That way, you could see if it's available from Overdrive, just not at your library yet.

*I have access to four Overdrive libraries, and one has turned off the ability to recommend books. Or maybe they haven't turned it on - not sure how it works on their end.
