TexShare Program
The Krum Public Library is proud to be a part of the North Texas Library Consortium. NTLC is a group of area libraries that have partnered to coordinate activities, share resources, and combine expertise. This gives our patrons access to a significantly larger catalog and the convenience of being able to check out and return items at any of the participating NTLC libraries.
​
In addition to being a member of the NTLC, we participate in the state Interlibrary Loan (ILL) program, which allows card holders access to books that are not available from the Consortium’s collection. We accept and process ILL requests for NTLC card members 17 years of age and older that have a current account in good standing and have been a patron for at least one year.
​
The TexShare Program allows patrons to visit more than 500 libraries throughout the state of Texas and check out materials. Patrons must have a NTLC full privilege card for at least six months with no outstanding balance in order to be eligible for a TexShare card. Patrons who are issued a Krum TexShare card may take that card to obtain a library card at another TexShare participating library, and are responsible for returning items borrowed to the lending library.
