A dedicated Music & Performing Arts Librarian to help you with your research!
This guide will help you explore the resources most relevant to your class, both inside and outside the library. If you need help, use the contact information on the left to contact a librarian.
Items from other UW libraries will appear in your Search@UW results. You can request items from other campuses, and they'll be on hold for you at Golda Meir Library within a few days.
Even if the UW system doesn't own an item, we can almost always get it for you. You can fill out a request for a book, article, chapter, score, etc. via Interlibrary Loan (ILLiad).
Students and faculty can request a one-on-one or small group meeting with the Music and Performing Arts Librarian to talk about any aspect of the research process.
