TexQuest is ready for districts to sign up!



Dear Texas K-12 school districts and librarians,

It is time to sign up for TexQuest, the statewide online resources for Texas public school districts and open enrollment charter schools! Please visit the TexQuest website at http://texquest.net to begin the signup process.

As you sign up, please keep these points in mind:

·         TexQuest registration will be done at the district level, not the campus level. Campus librarians: please ensure this message reaches the proper personnel within your district; those staff members with district purchasing authority.

·         Please read the guides and instructions posted on the TexQuest website carefully; they will be a great aid during the sign up process. If you have questions or need help during the process, please contact the Region 20 Support Center at texquest@esc20.info

·         Participation in TexQuest is free for the first year of the program (June 2014-June 2015), but districts will be invoiced in January 2015 to participate in the program for the second year that begins June 2015. The participation fee is 22 cents per student based on October 2013 enrollment, so please take steps to plan your budget accordingly.

The Texas State Library and Archives Commission is pleased to offer these resources for school libraries across the state. In partnership with Region 20 Education Service Center, we are here to support Texas school libraries in their implementation of this program, and we welcome every opportunity to assist school libraries. Please feel free to contact us at K12@tsl.texas.gov or (512) 463-5852 with your questions or comments. Please forward this information to anyone in your professional circles or associations who may have missed this announcement.
