Show original check out date on My Account, not just renewal date.
Currently, when you renew an item, your checked out date updates to the date you renewed. Patrons have asked that it show the original check out date. So an item checked out originally in November and renewed in December would show the new due date, renewals remaining, and the original due date (not the date item was renewed). I suppose it could show renewal date, so long as original checkout date was available to see somewhere on the account (patron view).

Being able to see the original checkout date along with the current due date is ideal. When an item was renewed is less important. If patrons are questioning whether or not they borrowed an item, having the checkout date reflect a renewal date may lead to confusion. What they need to know is when they borrowed it and when it is due back.
