I get the e-mails on my phone, so I would get a notification as soon as it came through.

I don’t check emails, but I always have another book on hand, so the waiting doesn’t seem that long!

I scroll thru the newest, fill up my holds limit, find a couple to read. And then, all the holds come in at once.
