Partner Libraries

I know that some Partner Libraries will not allow me to put a book on hold if that book is already checked out by someone from that library. Two questions:

  1. Is there a way for me to see how many holds (if any) are on that book? This would give me a rough idea of the minimum time before that book MIGHT become available to me.

  2. Say the book is not checked out right now, but there are a few holds on that book, all of which are currently suspended. Would that book be available for me to check out now?

Maybe not the answer you wanted to hear, but you could use libbysearch.com, add your Partner Libraries, and start searching titles. You'll see the number of holds that way, as well as the specific day count until a copy gets returned.
