I would like to tell you that i am 88 years old and my memory of how long ago I had my old Auras was wrong.
With my old Auras in ADE 3.0 I can return a book to the library and then remove the book in ADE 3.0 and when I go to My books the book is removed.

I was actually surprised when I looked at the Kobo ereader timeline. I could have sworn that I had purchased my original Kobo before 2010. The memory isn't what it used to decades ago. I seldom use ADE directly with my Kobo ereaders since even with library books, I prefer to import them to calibre (without removing the DRM), update the covers and metadata and then sync them to my Kobo so I would not have seen removing them from ADE also removing them from the ereader on the next sync.

You mention Overdrive integration in the Aura H202, I do not think my ereader has this and I wonder if this an old reader I have been sold. Thanks for your interest, Robert.

If your firmware has updated to 4.10.11655 (which may not be available to your device as yet due to Kobo's phased rollouts), you will get OverDrive on the Kobo Clara HD, Kobo Aura H2O Edition 2 (aka H2O2) and Kobo Aura Edition 2 in addition to the Kobo Aura ONE. Basically, the four models that are currently being sold all have OverDrive with this firmware version. This assumes you live in one of the countries that have Kobo OverDrive support.
This firmware can also be manually installed -- check the Kobo forum for advice on this. One item with doing a manual update on your H2O2 is that you will need to check the serial number. If the 7th digit of the serial number is a 2, you have an H2O2 v2 which takes a different firmware version from the H2O2 original version. See
Kobo Firmware Downloads for the manual download links.
Once you have the .zip file downloaded, connect your H2O2 to your computer, open the .zip file and copy the 2 files and 1 directory to the .kobo directory on your H2O2. Once the files have copied, safely eject your H2O2 and it will start the update in while -- be patient!.
If you are using a Mac OS X or Linux computer, you will need to allow hidden directories (the name will start with a . ) to be seen.
