MUSC 1201: Introduction to Western Art Music History

Music Library Staff

The staff we have in the Music Library are here to help you, so come say hi or ask us questions! We would love to get to know you!

If you have research questions, purchase suggestions, have trouble finding something, or would like to learn how to better use the library, come talk to Kevin!

If you have questions about borrowing & renewing library materials, course reserves, or interlibrary loans, Jakob can help with that!

We are both here to help, so if you're not sure who to ask, ask either of us! There is no question too big or small!
