Resources in the UWM Music Collection
UWM Libraries have the largest collection of music in Southeastern Wisconsin, including 60,000 LPs, nearly 16,000 CDs, 30,000 books about music, and 30,000 pieces of printed music, plus millions of streaming tracks in our online databases. The Music Collection is part of the Golda Meir Library: check the Libraries' website for the most up-to-date hours and policies.
We also have a full-time Music & Performing Arts Librarian to help you with your classwork and advanced research. To set up a research consultation with the librarian, use this form. You can email your questions about music to our email or chat reference services at https://uwm.edu/libraries/ask/ or phone us directly at (414)229-6690.
