Welcome to the UNT Libraries!
This guide is intended for enrolled in the North Texas Now! dual credit program at UNT Frisco with Profs. Dumaine and Mintin. This guide will provide you with various methods to access academic research materials and make the most of the UNT Libraries.
As students enrolled in a program at UNT Frisco, you are considered distance learners. This means you can have library materials mailed to your address on file with the UNT. To request materials to be mailed to you, you will need to create an account with ILLiad. Your ILLiad account will give you access to services like Interlibrary Loan, delivery, and e-delivery. You can request both physical items like books and pdf copies of book chapters or articles. See the information on this page to create an account and use our distance learner services.
