I placed both my bookshelf and wishlist on hold until January 4th. Most of my wishlist books won't be released until 2010. Can I unhold the books that are released or about to be released? There are a couple books that PBS estimates will be posted in a week.

If your books are on Auto Request, then the vacation hold does not apply.  Those books will come as long as you have the available credits. 

Please note that any RCs would be applied to all of the auto request books unless you turn the RC off on the settings page.

 

To have a true vacation hold (such as for being away) you must have your WL books on 48 hour offer.

Thanks! I have all my wishlist on auto request so then I'll be okay. I just really wanted my bookshelf on hold anyway.
