Q. I tried opening an ebook to read an assignment and I received a message saying, “book is in use try back later.” What does this mean?

If you see the statement “book in use,” it means the maximum number of users available to use that title at the same time has been reached. Wait a brief time and try opening again. If you try this several times and still cannot access it, please feel free to let the library team know and they will check further to see if additional copies can be added.
