TexShare Card Program

A TexShare Card entitles cardholders to full borrowing privileges and services offered by participating public and academic libraries throughout Texas including the Moffett Library at MSU. Instructors may contact the library staff in person, by phone, or by email at librarian@vernoncollege.edu to request the card. TexShare is a program of the Texas State Library and Archives Commission. When using a TexShare Card:  Present valid identification along with the TexShare Card in order to borrow materials from participating TexShare libraries.  Agree to return materials to the library from which they were borrowed, not the VC library.  Return materials in person or by other methods outlined in the library’s lending policy.  Be responsible for any charges for late, damaged, or lost materials.  Lending policies are made by the individual libraries that participate in the TexShare Card program. Because of this, lending policies may vary from library to library. Be sure to check the lending policies for the library you wish to use. Library assistance is available in person or online via email and live chat. Instructors may email librarian@vernoncollege.edu or request chat support via the icon located on the library homepage.
