Well at least in Swedish libraries you usually can ask to extend you loan period if you don't finish in time.

Sometimes I will check out a book and not actually get around to reading it for a week or so, but by the time I'm halfway through it the late fees will start to accrue. Perhaps it is time to do away with these archaic late fees and simply allow people to pay for infinite access. Some access will have to be subsidized, but that's just par for the course.
