Texan Pickup
Texan Pickup is a new service that allows students, staff, and faculty to place a hold on a book and have it pulled from the stacks. The book is then placed on the hold shelf awaiting pickup. Items can also be transferred to the other campus library. Click the link below to learn more.
Interlibrary Loan
Need a book that we don't own? The Tarleton Libraries have a large collection. Unfortunately, the library does not have everything you might need. As a current student you can request items through the library's interlibrary loan service. We search nation wide for items that you may need.
