Q. How many books can you put on hold?

There doesn't appear to be a limit on the number of items you can place on hold. But you may want to keep in mind that each library card can only check out up to 50 items at any given time-- only 10 of which can be DVDs, CDs, audiobooks, or CD-Roms. Some strategy may be required to ensure all of your holds don't come in at the same time (like mine always seem to do)!

For our downloadable materials, however, the limit is 5 eHolds per patron. This is probably because OverDrive will only let you check out 10 items at any given time.

I hope that answers your question! Please call us at (225) 231-3750 for further assistance.
