   @squaremoon This is why I have 27 library cards. I can renew with another library when time runs out.

     First world problem.

     I am reading a murder mystery. I got a notification from Libby that I have only one day left. I tried renewing it, but the book is no longer available in the library. Like, what??? I immediately synced the book on my iPad Kindle and put the Kindle on airplane mode.

     In short, I have to finish this book today because I want to know the killer's name as soon as possible. I won't be able to play games on my iPad until then.

     @squaremoon Glendale Library doesn't use Libby though. They use "CloudLibrary".

     @squaremoon yup. California residents can get a library card at any California public library. Just have to show up in person. And i still have the three from when I lived in Washington (which doesn't have that rule, but I was still eligible for those three).
