The printed music collection includes many types of materials, such as full scores, piano/vocal scores, miniature scores, sheet music, facsimiles of manuscripts, and collected editions of historical works. Most scores circulate for a four week loan period, similar to books.
Scores will usually be found in the Scores & Recordings collection (see map) on the third floor. Some scores are shelved on the second floor of Olin, while some oversized materials may be found on floor 3a.
