Abstract

This article discusses the metadata records aggregated by the Sheet Music Consortium using the Open Archives Initiative Protocol for Metadata Harvesting. The consortium's website serves as a union catalog for more than a quarter of a million records, harvested from 27 providers.

A pilot project focused on sheet music publishers is discussed and the results are presented.
