Because the library pays for each hoopla checkout, there is a limit on how many items Burleson cardholders can check out each day. This ensures that we stay within our budget and that we have content available throughout the entire month. If you receive a message that the daily borrowing limit has been reached, please check again the following day. (Tip: hoopla is most popular during the first week of each month.)
