A TexShare card allows you to borrow materials from participating libraries across Texas. Visitors who would like to borrow HCC items using a TexShare card need to obtain the card from their home library before visiting an HCC library. Every library has different policies for issuing TexShare cards and for lending to TexShare cardholders, so check with the individual library.
