TexShare is a free service that allows currently-enrolled students, faculty, and staff to check out books and materials from other libraries in Texas that are participating in the TexShare program  (e.g.: public libraries and university libraries).

You can request your TexShare card online, valid for one semester, by filling out the Bell Library Delivers Registration form.

Once you receive your TexShare card, you can take it and a photo ID to another TexShare Library and receive borrowing privileges at that library. Patrons are responsible for returning items borrowed from other libraries to that library.

See the link below for more information and a map of the 500+ participating TexShare libraries.
