LIBRARY OF CONGRESS LAUNCHES MUSIC SITE

The Library of Congress has launched a Music Consortium Treasures website that gives online access to some of the world’s most valued music manuscript and print materials from six esteemed institutions at www.loc.gov/musictreasures/.

The aim of the site is to further music scholarship and research by providing access in one place to digital images of primary sources for performance and study of music.

The Music Treasures Consortium website is the creation of the music libraries and archives in both the United States and the United Kingdom. Joining the Library are The Juilliard School’s Lila Acheson Wallace Library, the British Library, the Eda Kuhn Loeb Music Library at Harvard University, the Morgan Library and Museum and the New York Public Library.
