Yahoo mail is playing up. I don’t know if my emails are going through to people.
I got an e-reader for my birthday back in february and since then I sign in to the online library and borrow e-books that I download to the computer and move to my reader. Easy peasy? No. At first I was bummed about only being able to borrow one book a week. As a fast reader it bugs me but ok. But now, I haven't been able to borrow even one for the past three weeks as the library itself has used up their quota for online lending. None is able to borrow any e-books at all. Like, its not even physical copies, how on earth can there be a restriction of how many e-books a library are allowed to lend? I want to read!

Like, its not even physical copies, how on earth can there be a restriction of how many e-books a library are allowed to lend? I want to read!I can actually sort of answer that! I work in a library and I know for our ebooks we have to pay for so many copies to "check out" to ereaders through the company that provides the digital books. So even though it's a digital copy, we can only have two copies of (for example) Alice in Wonderland checked out at a time, so if a third patron wants it, they have to put themselves on the wait list for it. Depending on the contract your library has, it will determine how the check-outs work. It sounds like your library paid for X number of books and they need to renew their subscription. My mom has Amazon Prime and I think she gets to download a free book every month but you might see if they offer check outs as well.
