If you have auto-checkout on, you may have lost your place in line as once it's borrowed, you may be able to only return it. You cannot download it. So if you can return it, you'll have to return it and get back in line. That means you might have a longer wait. Luckily, the one book I returned and replaced on hold has me back as first in line and I expect it to have a line eventually. It's the next In Death book due out January 30.

I have one book I have to wait until it expires as I tried to borrow it and then download. But that failed. Fortunately, I set myself to 7-days and only have to wait a week to replace the hold.
