A Guide to the Ethnomusicology LP
Collection
in the Oberlin College Conservatory
Library
Compiled by Prof. Roderic Knight
with the assistance of McGregor-Oresmon scholars
Liza Sapir and Stephen Clink, 1999-2000
and numerous other students
The collection of ethnomusicological
recordings on LP disc in the Conservatory Library contains some 2,000
items, acquired primarily between 1960 and 1990. They are shelved in
geographical sequence according to the Dewey Decimal System. The
purpose of this guide is to provide an overview of the collection by
region, with country and regional maps.
The guide includes (1) the call
number, (2) the title (sometimes annotated), and (3) the company
number for each recording. To search for an item in a given list, use
the "Find" command on the Edit menu. Many of the LPs were only
minimally catalogued when acquired. Others have been fully
catalogued, and this information is available on OBIS, the library online catalog.
The maps are drawn from three
sources, whose permission is hereby gratefully acknowledged: the
Perry-Castaneda
Library Map Collection at the
University of Texas at Austin, Lonely
Planet Publications, and, for
the American Indian Tribes map, Dontom Inc., PO Box 272, Manitou
Springs, CO 80829, ph. 719-685-5150.
