Using Other Libraries
I encourage you use the resources available to you from the Blume Library when you need books, articles, or help with your research projects. However, you may find that you need to use a library closer to you at some point in your academic career. There are several options to pursue if you want to use other libraries or locate materials at those libraries.
- Open WorldCat
- search this Internet-based database to determine if a library in your area owns a particular book, video, or article, etc.
- TexShare Cards
- apply for a TexShare card so you can books and other materials from participating Texas libraries; online TexShare card application
