If you are trying to access an eBook and you receive a message that it is in use, it means that the publisher has limited the accessibility of the eBook to one user at a time.  Some other services do not have this limitation. If you receive this or a similar message, you may want to check back later or order a copy of the print book through GIL Express or ILL.
