How are databases selected?
The TexShare Electronic Information Working Group (EIWG), in consultation with TexShare member libraries, selects the suite of TexShare databases. This stellar group of librarians includes representatives from all types of TexShare member libraries (4-year academic, community college, medical and public). TexShare member libraries are surveyed regularly to establish priorities for future purchases. The EIWG recommends databases purchases to the Texas State Library and Archives Commission.
