The TexShare card program is a reciprocal borrowing program of the Texas State Library. It is designed to allow the registered borrowers of participating libraries to directly borrow materials from other participating libraries.

This program includes over 200 public and academic libraries from across Texas. North Texas libraries participating in the TexShare card program include:

• You have had a valid Irving Public Library card for at least six months; WebCards, corporate cards, computer-use-only cards, temporary cards, and restricted-use cards are not acceptable.
• You present a valid Texas driver's license or identification card showing your current address.
• Your borrower account is in good standing (no overdue materials and no outstanding charges for lost or damaged materials).
• Your account has been in good standing for the previous six months.
• You agree to abide by the rules, policies, and procedures of the TexShare card program and its participating libraries.

Failure to return materials borrowed with a TexShare card and/or pay any charges imposed by a TexShare library may result in suspension of your borrowing privileges at the Irving Public Library and/or your account being turned over the library’s collection agency.
