Where can I find?

The most popular question of this past week has been “Where can I find…?” Whether it is string quartets, Rubinstein piano studies, or that Danhauser book, the same tools may be used to locate these items in our collection.

The library catalog is a great place to start. You can search by author (i.e. composer, performer) and limit the results. Limiting allows you to specify if you want a book, score or recording. You can also narrow your search results by words in the title. This is particularly help for composers like Bach, Beethoven, Mozart, etc.

If you would like to browse, check out our library guides to find the essential call numbers for your instrument. These are accessible online as well as in the library.

If time is pressing, ask a library staff member to assist you. While we encourage you to learn how to search the library catalog, we are happy to assist you when needed.
