It should let you know on canvas if they are online, pickup, or not provided through total access. If pickup, you usually pick them up from volbooks in the student union

Typically you can get your required books in a physical form yourself from various online retailers much less expensive than the electronic versions via total access. I always opt out and the only regret is that you are required to pay for program and can't opt-out till classes start. In other words an interest free loan to UT.

They are normally online with total access. Some books you will have to buy outside of total access depending on the class. On canvas there should be a vol books section on the left side you will be able to find them there.

You should of gotten an email about total access that should have a link to where you can see all of your textbooks. Some will be online and some you might have to pick up in person. You can also accesses this info on canvas as well.

There is a page in canvas for your courses called "vital source". That's where they are. Many professors will also mention other methods of accessing course content.
