Searching musical works in a library's catalog can be challenging, because they often have generic titles (like "symphony"), or are published in collections (songs often are), or it's not easy to think of subject terms for them.

The best search strategy often depends on the type of music you're looking for.

See the tabs above to select an appropriate search strategy.

Music materials can be found:

• in ZSR Library
• in the Music Library
• in our offsite facility
• online

The catalog record will indicate the location of specific items:

• If an item is housed offsite, you'll find a link in the catalog record for requesting delivery. (We can deliver same day.)
• If an item is available online, you'll find a link to it in the catalog record.
