I get a silly little rush when I get to return a library e-book early rather than just letting the system do it for me when my return time runs out. I like knowing someone might be getting a book earlier than they expected! So if you have any books you're letting linger for the system to take care of, here's your reminder to go ahead and return them and maybe brighten someone's day with a surprise early hold :)
ETA: Here is a link explaining the process libraries go through to buy and loan out e-books for anyone curious: https://cheshirelibraryblog.com/tag/how-do-libraries-buy-ebooks/
