If we are unable to get a book for you through interlibrary loan (ILL) or if you want to request more than two items at a time, you can try the Texas State Library and Archives Commission (TSLAC) ILL service. Please note that they cannot confirm or guarantee that a lending library will loan an item.
With TSLAC, you can:
- Have up to five active requests
- Get different formats (books, CDs, DVDs, microfilm, etc.)
- Potentially borrow items from libraries nationally and even internationally
- Make requests online
You must:
- Register in person at TSLAC with a photo ID and proof of Texas residency.
- Pick up and return the items in person to TSLAC.
TSLAC is located at 1201 Brazos Street, just east of the Capitol in Austin. Please see their Contact Us page for additional information.
