How about a little rumba with that Mozart or some electronica with your Wagner! Looking for some sounds to study or to keep you motivated during the final push to exams? We have it! The Music & Media Center is home to nearly 34,000 sound recordings. Our collections include music from all over the world, all genres, and all time periods. Because we have so many recordings it's hard to find them if they're put back in the wrong place - to make sure everything is where it should be our sound recordings are a closed stacks collection. In the end that's no so bad, all you have to do is give us the call number, we go find it and check it out to you. Here's what you need to do to get the call number:
Step 1: http://www.library.tulane.edu, Change the default search from SearchAll to Catalog.
Step 2: Change All Locations and Types to Sound Recordings.
Step 3: Enter a keyword in the search box. It could be a composer, a genre, an opus number (op. 13, for example), a performer, a country.
Step 4: Once you find the perfect recording copy down the call number that begins with M-CD.
Step 5: Smile and hand the call number and your Splash Card to one of the friendly folks in the Music & Media Center.
Done!
Undergraduates can have up to 5 CDs out at a time, graduate students and faculty can have up to 7 CDs at a time.
If you still can't find the recording you're looking for, stop by the Music & Media Center. We'll give it a go and if we can't find it in the collection we'll see about ordering it.
