E-Journal Packages
Journal packages are collections of electronic journals produced by one publisher. Most journal article databases at the UNT Libraries will link you to the journal packages, so you don't need to search them directly. They are most useful for following the issues of a particular journal, or locating an already identified article.
Other Electronic Resources for Geography
The UNT Libraries offer a number of other electronic resources useful for geography research. They include dictionaries and encyclopedias, e-books, and additional journal article databases.
Using RefWorks
The UNT Libraries offer free use of the bibliographic management software, RefWorks. Read here to find out how to set up your RefWorks account and start producing bibliographies with ease.
When You Can't Find an Item at the Library
Sometimes the book or article you need will be located in a different building on the UNT campus. Other times, you'll find that the UNT Libraries don't have the item you need at all. Read here to find out how to order materials from other UNT facilities and from Interlibrary Loan.
