Relating to access to the catalog of a public school's library materials.
HB 3670 requires Texas public school districts and open-enrollment charter schools to make the catalog of available library materials at each school publicly accessible through an online database. This applies to all school libraries within the district or charter school, directly affecting school administrators and library staff responsible for catalog management. The bill mandates that the catalog must be maintained in a searchable, publicly available online format, not just physical copies. It takes effect for the 2025-2026 school year, unless passed with a two-thirds vote for immediate implementation.
