I’m a little obsessive in following my various libraries’ updates, so I get a lot of new-release books and yes, I’ve been seeing this for several months now. Typically if I check out a brand new book on the date of release there is no Kindle version but if I don’t download immediately and wait about 24 hours the Kindle version normally shows up for download. Even stranger is I’ve downloaded Kindle versions and when I look at my library checkout page later it shows as only ePub available, should I need to re-download. During lockdown I signed up for several more cards from my regional libraries and I see this happening across several different systems. Annoying, but for now the 24-hr wait is working for me.

ETA: I don’t think I’ve seen the issue at all when I check out a book that I’ve had a regular hold on.
