I posted a book and when I look at my Books I've Read list, it states that it is on someone's WL, with the auto request turned on.  Yet I haven't received a request and it remains on my shelf.  Any ideas why this would happen?

Thanks,

Laurie

Laurie, this is from the Help Center:

So, I'm guessing that perhaps this person doesn't have credits and so it is in a waiting pattern to wait for them to come and responnd. 

HTH!

Laurie,

I had this happen to me recently and was told the person had probably ran out of credits. If this is the case, they will have a certain period of time in which they can either purchase credits or refuse the book. Mine was snapped up when the person evidently purchased credits to cover it. Hope this helps. I'm not real good at explaining things.

All books, including autorequest books, are in limbo for one hour after they are requested to account for "buyer's remorse."  I know, seems silly with autorequest, right?  But, that's the way the system is set up.  So, maybe that's what is happening for you (if you only posted the book within the last hour). 

Laurie - how long has it been on your bookshelf? If it's not on your Wish List Holds tab under my account and it's been on your shelf more than three or four days, you probably have a "stuck" book. Send in a feedback using the contact us link at the bottom of the page.

Thanks everyone.  It must have been one of the two theories (no credits or the one hour hold) because when I came on tonight, it was requested.  And Pam, you explained yourself perfectly.

Thanks again,

Laurie
