The Music Section has been very busy over the past month adding new and newly digitized music materials to BARD. From Mozart, to bluegrass, to method books for alto and bass flute, there is a little bit of something here for everyone! If you have any questions on how to use BARD or to obtain a BARD account, please get in touch with the Music Section or your local Regional Library.
And now, on to our books! (Note: All titles are one volume unless otherwise noted. For titles that have more than one volume, the links on this blog take you to the first volume only.)
