Featured WorldCat collection: MUSIC, MUSIC, MUSIC! WorldCat has more
than 3 million records for sound recordings and scores, and links to NetLibrary
eBooks, from Bach to Stravinsky. Library users can find them using FirstSearch,
which also offers RILM Abstracts of Music Literature and RIPM Retrospective
Index to Music Periodicals. RILM contains records in over 200 languages; entries
include original-language titles, title translations in English, full bibliographic
information and abstracts in English, as well as author, journal and in-depth
subject indexes. RIPM provides international coverage of the music periodical
literature published from the late 18th to mid-20th centuries in Europe and
the United States. Both databases link to library holdings and to OCLC ILL,
and RILM citations and can link to a library's JSTOR collection. Ask your OCLC
representative how you can enhance access to music resources.
