I use a slip that has a space for the due date.  It also tells them how to
renew, where to return maps, and what will be charged if maps are not returned,
lost, or damaged.  I  attach it with a rubber band or pink tie to the rolled map
before it goes in a tube.  It can be slipped in a folded map or attached with a
plastic paper clip.  The patron is informed of the slip and date.  Most of the
time the slip comes back with the tube so it doesn't get lost.
