Any #kobo and #toronto public library users #overdrive here?

I got a Kobo Libra Color last week and was excited to use it with the TPL

I have been experiencing syncing issues between the two.

Books that I borrow on the library don’t show up on the Kobo

Books that I have on hold on the library don’t show up on the Kobo

Books that are available on the library are not on the Kobo. It’s like the Kobo library catalog is limited.

Examples:

The Silo book series, when I search for it on TPL shows me a bunch of books and I have a hold in the third one, Dust.
On Kobo only the first one exists and my hold doesn’t.

The Three Body Problem book I borrowed on Libby doesn’t show up on the Kobo and only appears as a hold with a 4 week waitlist

I tried borrowing an Agatha Christie book on Libby to test it out - The Murder of Roger Ayckroyd - but it didn’t show up on the Kobo as well

I eventually got another Agatha Christie book to show up on Kobo (Death on the Nile) but still think that the Overdrive catalog the Kobo is getting is missing a lot of books.

Anyone has seen this before? My Kobo is brand new.

Very cool! In Toronto:
