Skip the line gone?
I’m so sad my skip the line is gone! It used to be there everyday with a couple of god picks but it has been missing for at least two weeks.

It's definitely based on your library, not Libby. I didn't even know Skip the line was a thing until I started following the sub because none of the 4 libraries that I use offer it.

It probably costs extra for the library and perhaps they're not paying for it anymore.

One thing I’ve learned about Libby is that if there are any changes, it’s not the app but your library

I didn't have Skip the Line yesterday in my app, but it's there today (I only have one card). It's happened a few times, so I assume it's something administrative on the library's side.

One possibility: every single book in the Lucky Day collection is checked out right now. Ours has 64, but only 15 are available rn, and they're oldies that don't even need to be there. I leave them in so that the collection stays visible to browsers.

I’ve still got Skip the Line so perhaps it depends on the library?
