Academic Libraries
On August 27th 2015 I was given a tour of RUSH RHEES Academic Library on the campus of the University at Rochester, by Debra Fox. The Music and Arts library is located on the ground floor. This was a wonderful opportunity to see the world of academic librarians, and visit the Music and Arts section of the library. It is a beautiful building and has a vast array of collections. I am in the Music-Librarianship program at the University at Buffalo, and this was awesome to see all the departments in the library and to meet many important people working away in the library world.
The Sibley Music Library (Eastman School of Music) located at 27 Gibb Street, Rochester NY. (This is the largest Music Library in North America), containing 750,000 items. 375,00 cataloged books, Subscription to over 600 music periodicals, and over 100,000 vinyl LPs, CDs and tapes. The Rare book collection has 150,000 items.
