Items can be renewed a maximum of 3 times (videos go out for 1 week and the rest go for 3 weeks). The only collection unavailable to ANY of our patrons is the reference collection. A fine is assessed after audio materials and books are 60 days late and videos are 21 days late. The fine is $5 per item and once a patron has a fine, he or she loses borrowing privileges until the fine(s) are paid. The fine(s) maybe be paid a $1 at a time. ELIGIBILITY: Any person that is a resident of the state of Texas may register for a TexShare card at our library. Adults must have a valid TX driver\'s license or Tx ID. Juveniles must have a parent or legal guardian sign a card for them. The patron-to-be applies at the front desk.

Mon-Thur: 9am-8pm

OVERDUES: Overdue notices are sent out by mail. Patrons receive 1st and 2nd notices that the materials are late and then they receive a 3rd notice that a fine is being assessed and borrowing privileges are suspended.

FINES: $5 per item that is late. Damage fees are assessed by the amount of damage done to the item.

LOST ITEMS: An item is considered lost after a fine has been assessed or the patron tells us the material is lost. Lost fees are the cost of the item+a $1 processing fee+the fine (if applies).

BILLING: Payments may be made at the front desk or by mail. They are due as soon as the fine has been assessed and failure to pay results in loss of borrowing privileges.
