In your library’s Participant Record the first section is called Lender Information. Under that are Days to Respond, Days to Supply and Days to Return. The settings for these should be:   Days to Respond – 4 Days to Supply – 10 Days to Return – 30   I have seen a fair number of libraries who have different values in these slots.
