I haven't looked to see if the highlights are there after a library book was returned. But, I had been told by Kobo that one of the reasons for adding the book as a preview after it is returned is to have somewhere for the annotations to be kept in case the person bought the book later. I assumed this would work with borrowing the book again.

Of course, it is possible that two different editions were involved so that the system did not see them as the first book. If you borrowed from the same library the second time, I would hope that was not the case, but, it is a possibility.

Did you delete the preview that Kobo added? If you had removed that from your library, that would probably explain it.
