Interlibrary Loans

Are you looking for a book that isn’t in our collection? The Cooke County Library offers an interlibrary loan service in which we can request a book from other libraries in the state of Texas. Come into the library to request an item or request it online using SHAREit.

**The Texas State Library and all participating Texas libraries are transitioning to the new SHAREit system throughout the summer of 2024. Beginning June 7, library patrons and staff will use the new interface to place, track, and manage interlibrary loan requests. Any links you have saved for our previous Texas Group Catalog should be deleted as this system is discontinued and will no longer be in service.**
