  Borrowing Policies


 

Reciprocal Borrowing

Thanks to agreements among members of the Texas Panhandle Library System and Harrington Library Consortium, a library card issued at any Moore County Library can be used in dozens of libraries around the Texas Panhandle.  Likewise, patrons who hold cards from any member library may check out most items from any Moore County Library.

Interlibrary Loan

Any Moore County cardholder in good standing may request a book by Interlibrary Loan (ILL). We request the book from another library, which is then sent here within two weeks, under most circumstances. The patron is responsible for one-way postage, usually $2.50. The patron checks the book out here, and returns it here.

Internet Access and Computer Usage

Thanks to grants from the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, Killgore Memorial Library offers Internet Access at eight terminals. On most of the PCs, patrons can also choose to perform general word-processing.

Book Drop

Moore County Libraries in Dumas, Cactus, and Sunray provide a 24-hour book-drop.

Killgore's is on the northwest corner of the building.

Programming

Each branch of the Moore County System offers its own special programming. 

Call or check the website for dates and times.

Memorials

Honoring or memorializing a loved one with a gift to the library can be done in one of three ways.

1) You may purchase an item and donate it to the library with the notation that it is an honorarium or a   memorial.  It is best to speak with library staff before purchasing any item to make sure that the item will meet our collection development standards and to prevent duplication of titles. Only new items will be considered for inclusion in the collection.

2) You may make a cash donation, requesting that the library purchase a particular title.

3) You may make a cash donation for the library to use as we see fit.

With any option, we will send a card to whomever you designate, with the information that a gift has been given to the library.  Please provide all necessary contact information at the time of donation.
