TexShare Databases
TexShare databases are provided to Texas Libraries by the Texas
State Library for use by Texas Library card holders. TexShare
enables participating libraries to offer a broader range of
materials and services than any single library can provide. In
addition to traditional resource sharing arrangements such as
interlibrary loan, TexShare services include online full-text
databases. These databases provide desktop access to journal
articles that were formerly available only in large research
libraries.
In order to access the
TexShare Databases from a computer outside of the library, you must
have a
library card
with the El Paso Public Library and a
pin number.
Go to the
TexShare Database....
