Interface enhancement for Music Online

We've made an important change to the Music Online interface based on the feedback from our customers.

We've moved the drop-down list, which allows users to go directly to the individual music collections that make up Music Online, from the bottom of every page to the top.  It is now located on the upper left hand side of the page underneath the About | System Requirements links.

We hope this change makes it easier for users to understand that they can search each of the music collections individually, in their native interface, as well as on the cross-search Music Online platform at music.alexanderstreet.com.

Going to AMS? Join us for breakfast

If you're heading to Philadelphia next week for the American Musicological Association Annual Meeting, we'd love for you to join us for breakfast on Saturday, November 14th.

Each year Alexander Street treats AMS members to a delicious, hot breakfast while displaying the newest tools, features, and online collections in our music portfolio. This year, Liz Dutton and Tim Lloyd will demonstrate how to cross-search all of our audio, video, music reference, and score collections using the Music Online platform. They'll also show you how Music Online meets all of your teaching and research needs through practical examples from topics presented at the meeting.

Additionally, all breakfast attendees will be entered in our drawing for a free year of access to Jazz Music Library for their entire institution! Imagine returning to work with that bit of good news.

Seating at the breakfast is limited, so please RSVP now if you'll be in Philadelphia.

We'll also be in booth #411 in the exhibit hall if you can't make the breakfast.
