Excerpt from Music and Libraries: Selected Papers of the Music Library Association, Presented at Its 1942 Meeting Libraries of music are not new. For hundreds of years lovers of the art have assiduously collected manuscripts and books and scores which represented those manifestations that most appealed to them. Catalogs of musical collections are numerous, and bibliographic dis eussions of important musical imprints are far from uncommon. Nevertheless, the incorporation of music into the realm of active American librarianship is an achievement of the past generation or so. The very fact of this accomplishment naturally opens up untold problems and possibilities for librarians who, with music teachers and musicologists and will materially in uence Amer ican musical culture in the years to come. This modest collection of essays can scarcely claim to be more than a short step toward affect ing that culture, but its appearance is surely an affirmation of music's increasing importance in the American library. The Music Library Association is happy to produce a volume' which is truly unprecedented in library literature. It is even happier to have secured the collaboration of the American Library Associa tion, the parent of all library organizations. A bright hope exists that these two societies will bring music new benefits through the affection of art-devoted librarians. Edward N. Waters President, Music Library Association. February 23, 1943.
