When the loan period is over, the title expires and the item is automatically checked back in. At this time, you can delete the expired files from your computer. Additional eBooks which are in the public domain may be downloaded without going through the checkout process. Click on the graphic at the bottom right side of the eLibraryNJ main page that says "Additional eBooks Always Available" These titles, no longer under copyright, may be downloaded without login or checkout, and do not count against your checkout limits. This collection contains over 15,000 titles that never expire! A limited number of “digital copies” of a book may be in use by multiple people at one time. If this number is reached, a waiting list is started for that title. This is known as a "holds list." You may have 5 holds. When an item on your holds list becomes available to you, you will receive an e-mail indicating that it is ready for download. You then have 3 days to activate this checkout. If you do not download within the 3 days, you will forfeit your place in the queue for that title. Want to know more?
