The library's music materials are selected primarily to support undergraduate programs at the college, and include classical music, opera, musicals, jazz, non-Western music, and a selection of popular music. If you would like to recommend an item for purchase, please see our Music Materials Request Form.

Performing Arts Library collections are now part of the general collection

In January 2004, music books, scores, and sound recordings from the Performing Arts Library were integrated into the main St. Paul Campus Library. (The Performing Arts Library closed December 18, 2003.) Books about music (call numbers beginning with "ML") and music scores (call numbers beginning with "M") are now shelved in the regular circulating collection of the main library. Music periodicals and reference books are now in the reference and periodical collections in the main library. Compact discs are available at the Circulation Desk.
