Library checkout is 5 week period and can be renewed 6 times. So he can keep for a maximum of 8 weeks.
when he is allotted the book
0-5 weeks (1st renew)
5-10 weeks (2nd renew)
10-15 weeks (3rd renew)
15-20 weeks (4th renew)
20-25 weeks (5th renew)
25-30 weeks (6th renew)- maximum renew
after that,
30-35 (submission)
So 35 weeks is maximum.

i.e. 5+5 total 10 weeks

15+5+5+5+5=35 weeks
