In my county (and I believe many others) if you check a book out of the library they give you a set time to renew the book (e.g. 3 weeks).

However this time does not change if the book is 30 pages or if the book is 1,230 pages. The time due for a book should be somewhat tied to the number of pages in the book because it takes longer to read a long book.

So for example, books under 250 pages would be due in 2 weeks, 250 - 500 pages 3 weeks, etc.

Even though renewal is available, the same principle applies. The reader should be allowed more time to read a longer book.
