None at all. But, having the book when you DON'T have them checked out is what we should discourage. Because if you have the book checked out... then I can't check it out. And, if you save it past that time, I have it checked out now and we are both reading it.

If you can't read it in the time frame you have it checked out, don't check it out. Check it out when you are going to read it, then delete it if you are done. The same thing that would happen if you kept the DRM on it intact.
