Finding Books

You can find books available at the UNT Libraries by using the UNT Library's Discover (catalog). 

  • If you are looking for a specific book, you can search for that book directly by using the title and/or authors name. 
  • If you don't have a specific book in mind, you can also browse the catalog using keywords or subject terms. 

If you need help using the catalog, you have several options:

  • For general directions, you can go to Using the Library Catalog, Discover guide
  • For in person help in a library on the UNT campus, go to the reference or library services desk in the library where you are working;
  • For personal assistance when you are not in a library, go to Ask Us.

Print and Electronic Books

Most print books can be checked out for a period of time determined by your status- see our circulation policy. Request a book from Remote Storage or another library on campus by placing an online hold on the title.

E-books can be viewed and used immediately, or checked out, and even downloaded to electronic devices (options vary by e-book and platform).
