Orchestral Music Finding Aid:

The circulating scores are arranged in open stacks on the 2nd floor. Once you have identified a general area of interest, you can then browse the books and scores in that section. Numbered aisles help orient and direct you in your browsing. Please be aware that some of the same call numbers and areas of interest categorized in this finding aid are also represented in collections located on the 1st Floor.

Miniature Scores are located on the 1st Floor and have call numbers that start with MMu. Miniature Scores share the same classification numbers as the Mu Scores.
