The Texas Library Association is a Texas-based nonprofit professional association focused on supporting library services across the state. Founded in 1902, it operates as a 501(c)(3) charitable educational organization and serves as the official representative for academic, public, school, and special librarians and library supporters. Based in Austin, Texas, the organization serves a community of library professionals and advocates, with a relatively small to mid-sized staff. In addition to advocacy, the association develops and manages programs to promote reading and library services, including award programs and reading lists such as the Texas Bluebonnet Award and the Texas Topaz Nonfiction Reading List. In January 2026, it appointed Kate P. Horan as Director. Its activities include organizing and supporting conferences and events for library professionals in Texas.
