Daily Borrow Limit error message

In addition to the monthly download limit of 8 titles, there are daily budget limits set by our library that may prevent you from borrowing a title. You may get an error message that says something like "The collective daily borrow limit set by your library has been reached and will reset at midnight. Please browse and add titles to favourites so you can easily access them after midnight". What does that mean? The library pays for Hoopla monthly and Hoopla takes that monthly payment and divides it up by each day in that month. When patrons check out items, each check-out costs something. Different eBooks, audiobooks, movies, binge passes and other content all have different prices. So when a patron checks out an item from Hoopla, the price gets deducted from that daily amount. Eventually, all of the money for the day is gone and no one can check anything else out that day. The limit resets at midnight, so you can try again the next morning.
