I have to say it worked out for me this past week. I’d had an audiobook on hold at a “partner” library for a couple of months; the system with the partner libraries is that if a cardholder puts a hold on a book, you get bumped down the list. I’d started out next in line, dropped to second, came back up to first, but then was disappointed last week to see I’d dropped down to third. The very next day, I got the email that the book was available. It’s obvious that without the redeliver option, I’d have waited a long time.

That said, I prefer the auto-checkout option also. It’s handier for me in general, and it is also going to build much longer waits into books.
