There is also a September 16 due date. If the borrowing period is 2 
months, then the book would have been borrowed July 16, when school is 
closed. And if the borrowing period is, say, 2 weeks to one month, 
there are due dates for August 12 and 21.

I remember when I was in school, about a month before summer vacation, 
 all due dates were stamped as the last day of classes.
