Posted on: August 8, 2024[ARCHIVED] Interlibrary Loans just got easier!
We’re thrilled to announce a big update to our Interlibrary Loan (ILL) system! For those unfamiliar, Interlibrary Loan allows you to borrow books and materials from other libraries if we don’t have them in our collection. Texas is now using a new platform called SHAREit by Auto-Graphics, and we’ve added a fantastic new feature just for you.Now, instead of coming into the library to fill out an ILL form, you can request
books and other materials online! Here’s how it works:
Log in with your library card number and phone number or password. (Don't forget to change the Library to White Settlement Public Library!)
Search for the items you need and request them directly through the website.
There is a small fee of $4.40 to cover postage - this is the current USPS Library Mail rate for 1 pound.
Prefer the old-school way? No worries—you can still come into the library and use the paper request form if that’s more convenient for you.
Our very own Library cat, Browser, joined us for the online training on the new system! He’s been diligently learning the ropes and is ready to help you navigate this new feature. Check out Browser’s photo below, hard at work on our new ILL system, and give it a try yourself. We can’t wait for you to enjoy this new convenience!
Happy borrowing!
