Borrowing From the Music Library

General Policy

Most Music Library materials, including sound recordings, may be borrowed by Tufts Arts and Sciences students, faculty, and staff. Music library reserve materials have limited circulation. Music reference materials and periodicals do not circulate, and thus must be used within the Music Library.

You must be a registered borrower with a Tufts ID, alumni card, or Boston Library Consortium Card in hand in order to borrow materials from the Music Library.

Contact Tufts Tisch Library Circulation Department for more information. Materials that are in demand (e.g., needed for music reserve or if requested by another borrower) will be recalled from the individual who has the material charged out.
