How to Use This Guide

Tips about Using this Guide


Welcome to the Browsing for Music Materials Guide!

In making this guide, our intention is for music performers and researchers to quickly obtain knowledge about where to access music scores and literature related to a particular area of study. We hope this resource will guide you to quickly access call number areas of interest in the Music Library.

The UNT Libraries' Discover Catalog


The information in these guides is not all-encompassing, which means not every ensemble type or literature topic is represented — you will need to search the Discover catalog for specific title and subject inquiries or access our Overview on Library of Congress Call Numbers for Music guide.

 

We are here to help if you have questions! Ask Us.
