Promoting the interests of university and community college libraries and librarians across Texas.

Members also have access to the CULD listserv to facilitate communication and professional support.
Get involved and support your profession! Join one of the CULD committees or volunteer to help on their projects. Volunteering is an opportunity to show your support for academic libraries and meet librarians from across the Lone Star State.
