When awaiting a book from the library, how many times a day is it sane to check your email?

I check it constantly ?

As many as it takes until the book comes in!!!

Thank God! I thought I was losing my mind w impatience. I keep checking like every 15 mins ?

I turn push notifications on on my phone for alerts from the library email address ????

I’d do that too but I have an irrational fear of low battery. Like I start to worry when my phones goes under 70% ??‍♀️

I have two apple charging cases that I rotate and then a mophie power pack also in case those both die

I have a few on hold…and it never fails I get them all at once! Haha

Now that you mention it, I did get 3 at the same time…

See! It’s a conspiracy! ???

I placed 4 books on hold and 3 came in with in 2 days and NOW I am waiting…. ?

I quite often get to the library before the email!

Mine are eBooks, so I have to wait for that email for it actually be available.

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

I have mine turned off due to my irrational fear or low battery.

LOL I have a portable charger in my purse at all times. I hate low battery.

I gave up! I cancelled my hold and bought the books. ?

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.

Every minute till you get the notification. ??
