The library has lost faith in me

Last week, Kaige suggested a movie to me.  Unfortunately, it wasn't streaming anywhere, but I did see that my local library had a copy in DVD, so I placed a hold.  I went and picked it up on Saturday and checked the receipt, making note that it was due back on 4/12, the following Saturday.

This morning, I get an email from the library letting me know that, as a courtesy, they've auto-renewed my loan.  I guess they figure I can't watch a 90 minute movie in three days. 

While I apprecaite the gesture, I also find it hilarious. 

So, how's you?

My always auto-renews... which is good because I frequently forget that I have books out.

I've never had anything auto-renew. I get reminder emails that things are almost due, but never this. However, I almost always borrow ebooks and digital audiobooks.

When our library went fines free, they set up an auto-renewal. So anything out auto-renewals four times unless it's on hold by someone.

That makes sense. I rarely borrow physical materials though — usually stick with ebooks and digital audiobooks — so that could be why I was surprised.
