Featuring interviews and conversations from over twenty orchestra, opera, and ballet librarians and archivists working for some of the world?s leading performing arts and educational institutions from North and South America, this book is a helpful resource to librarians, and archivists who need to manage artifacts in a variety of situations in the world of performing arts.
For music and library science professors, this serves as a useful teaching tool or reference material by allowing students to gain a glimpse into the profession of music performance librarianship. Finally, this book functions as a unique and important reference tool for all students who are considering a career in music performance librarianship or a profession in archives in the world of performing arts.
I admire librarians? work?they are a group of people who dedicate themselves to this artform. Musicians bring the music alive, but librarians keep the history of the institutions alive for the next generation.
