Yay eLibrary!

A few weeks ago I realized they now allow 6 books to be on hold at a time, instead of 4.  I was ridiculously happy about this.

And now I noticed they have a "recommend" section... so if I search for a book not available in eBook/audio, I can recommend they get it!  They had the option of getting notified it's ready, AND automatically being put on the list to get it!  YAY!

I put Bronze Horseman on the recommended list, so let's see if they get it...

    Sometimes it skips if like your computer goes to sleep while it's downloading.  You may have to re-download the book from the site and open it in overdrive. re-transfer and it'll tell you if there's missing tracks.  I usually check on the ipod through iTunes to make sure they are there before I disconnect.  And usually it takes iTunes longer because it's converting (wma format)

    Actually the audiobooks don't expire.  I usually download a bunch and they stay on my ipod until I delete them.  Overdrive will tell you they expired and delete them, but it's ok if you don't...

    NP!  I used to love/hate it.  I think I figured out all the quirks, so now it's just a love-love. 

    PS OMG Ben is already on SoS?!
