Southeast Chapter of the Music Library Association annual meeting
Panel discussion with Holling Smith-Borne, Guy Leach, and Peter Shirts (moderator)
Title: Should Libraries Collection CDs?
In 2019 in the U.S. most people seem to prefer free or subscription online streaming services for their audio listening over physical collections in libraries. However, because of how streaming music is licensed, libraries are mostly shut out of the streaming music economy, even if they wanted to join. As a result, music library circulation for physical media of audio recordings continues to fall. This panel brings together music and media librarians from three institutions in the Southeastern U.S. that have historically collected extensively in physical media and asks questions about the current state of physical media collection and possible paths forward, including collection strategies, preservation issues, the use of interlibrary loan, vinyl collections, and education. Time at the session end will be dedicated to questions from the audience.
