Unknown Homescreen symbol

I recently used the online Kobo Manual pages and encountered some, to me, unknown "bell" symbol. It does not appear on my Kobo Clara, so can anybody enlight me? There seems to be no reference to it in the manual itself (but I might have missed it )

The bell shows notifications associated with your overdrive account.

Aah, thanks!
But, as I'm not cleared to use overdrive, I'm quite sure then that I won't ever see it in reality.

It's for OverDrive hold notifications, which is why it doesn't show up on older Kobo e-readers, and probably only shows up when signed in to an OverDrive account. I have screenshots that are available on request, but have never received any actual notifications there.

The notification appears for me when a book I had on hold is now available.

Yep, and I seemingly couldn't think of the right words, but that's basically it.
