Collections: Music Books, Scores, Sound Recordings, Videos & Films
The Library's music collection, located on the third floor, consists of books, periodicals, scores, sound recordings, videos and films. The music collection primarily supports classroom instruction and research needs of the music faculty and students enrolled in the School of Music at Cleveland State University. The collection is strong in the areas of music education, music history, performance, composition, ethnomusicology, jazz, electronic music and performance.
The collection of performance scores is strong in both instrumental and vocal music; there is a research collection of composers' collected editions and monuments of music. Of particular note are the Herbert Elwell Archives, South Indian music collections, and contemporary Polish music.
The entire collection is searchable through DISCOVERY @ CSU.
