So, my first library book's loan period was up today. Have to say, Amazon is being a little redundant in their notifications.

1. Got an email 3 days ago, saying that my loan was almost up. In my opinion, this is a nice reminder.

2. Got an email this morning saying that my loan was up. Again, a nice reminder.

3. When I turned on my wireless the book was removed pretty quickly. No problems with that. However, another reminder was downloaded to my kindle telling me that the loan was up and the book was removed. This last item is very annoying in my opinion and it is overkill.

Just one last reminder for you to buy it.

Agreed. It's annoying. I've gone back to checking out Epub and using the Kindle only if the other copy is in pdf.

It seems my local library newest books are mostly epub only and only a few new ones have been in Kindle format. I wonder if there is some issue going or the Kindle turnout wasn't enough for them to purchase more copies. They just started adding more epub copies to popular books something they've never done.

I know if you buy a library book from the library site they get a cut but I haven't found any info if you purchase the book through Amazon if your local library benefits from it.

It may be annoying, but think of how many people would be calling in when they go to read a library book and it's gone. It's overkill to most of us, but it's needed for some. I can't blame Amazon for going that route.

i am referring to deleting it from your library on Manage Your Kindle. If you do that, then you lose your highlights/notes, as with any other book you delete there.
