you can modify  your circ_groups.js script file.




	maxItemsOut			- the maximum number of items the user can have out
	fineThreshold		- the fine threshold.
	overdueThreshold	- the overdue items threshold.
	maxHolds				- The maximum number of holds the user can have



this is the format of  the file and the maxitemsout tells  you the  
number of items that a particular  group of users can borrow.
var GROUP_CONFIG = {
	'Patron' : {
		maxItemsOut         : 2,
		fineThreshold       : 10,
		overdueThreshold    : 10,
		maxHolds            : 5
	},
	
}



you can use your bootstrap pages  to determine  the maximum renewals  
for an item.as well as  the number of days a book can be borrowd  
out.of course this will also be determined by  your logic that u use  
for your checkout and what  rule u use for checkouts.
