Thank you for using our digital collections. Our Hoopla collection is very popular, and the library pays for each checkout. To stay within our monthly budget, we set a daily spending limit. Once that limit is reached, Hoopla checkouts are temporarily blocked for the rest of the day. The 24-hour period resets at midnight. We understand this can be frustrating and appreciate your patience. In the meantime, you may want to explore Libby's Available Now collection.
