3 MP4 files

File consists of video recordings of a tour of the Yale Music Library; a presentation by Sandi-Jo Malmon, Harvard University, Eda Kuhn Loeb Music Library and Ruthann Boles McTyre, Yale University, Gilmore Music Library on collaborative music collections with Borrow Direct with the IPLC (Ivy Plus Libraries Confederation); and a recording of the presentation discussion, moderated by Tim Neufeldt.

Presentation Abstract
The collaborative collection development plan that began in 2009 with music librarians from the 7 academic libraries of the Borrow Direct partnership has expanded over the past 10 years to include a total of 13 participating music libraries including those from the Ivy League and from MIT, Johns Hopkins, Duke, the University of Chicago and Stanford. The cooperative collection development plan for purchasing scores of contemporary composers has remained robust and truly collaborative as it has been updated to represent more broadly diverse collecting practices shared across institutions. Malmon and McTyre will discuss the history of this partnership as well as ongoing work to keep the collaboration and the collections fresh and relevant.

Also see video of library tour and a recording of the discussion that followed the presentation screening.
