As one of the top music libraries in North America, the Music Library at the University of Western Ontario, possesses an excellent collection of books, journals, microforms, music scores and sound recordings. Within the Music Library one can also find the Choral/Band/Orchestral Collection which contains performing parts for orchestra, choir, concert and jazz bands. Also housed within The Music Library is the Gustav Mahler-Alfred Rosé Room which proudly contains one of North America’s largest bodies of Mahler primary source material.[1] The room also includes the Opera Collection, a specialist collection of opera manuscripts and first editions dating from the seventeenth to the early twentieth centuries.[2]
