A TexShare Card provides you with borrowing privileges from more than 500 participating libraries across the state.
If you’re a registered patron of a participating library, you may request a TexShare Card from your home library. You must be a patron in good standing and have demonstrated compliance with your library’s existing borrowing policies. Ask at the UIW Mabee Library Reference Desk for your TexShare card. You will present this card and your UIW student ID at the lending library.
From the UIW Libraries' homepage, use the Books+ tab to search for a title, a subject, or an author.
Use the "Resource Type" filter on the left to find only eBooks or Streaming Videos, for example. You will need to use your usual UIW credentials to view these resources if you are off-campus.
Check in UIW's catalog NestSearch to find our materials first.
You might find that another library in San Antonio has the item and go check it out there with a TexShare card. You can also order the item using InterLibrary Loan, though you don't have to specify a library in that case.
