Welcome to the Music LibGuide!
This guide introduces you to the resources and services provided by the Helsinki University of Arts Sibelius Academy Music Library.
We will also publish a separate guide focusing on the special characteristics of how to search for music-related information.
This guide gives you an overview of the Uniarts Helsinki Library’s music resources. The guide also contains direct links to the Arsca and Finna search services.
On the Sheet music tab, we have compiled a list of sheet music databases, and on the Recordings and videos tab, there’s a list of websites that offer collections of recordings and videos. On the Books and theses tab, you’ll find links to e-books and GoogleBooks.
On the Journals tab, you’ll find information on scientific journals included in the library’s collections and instructions on how to search for them. You can also perform a search in the Arsca and Finna databases on the same tab. The Articles and databases tab gives you an overview on how to search for articles and provides links to the databases that Uniarts Helsinki has the access to.
On the Other information sources tab, you’ll find links to different music-themed sites, such as online sheet music stores and music organisations’ homepages. The guide also includes a list of a few Finnish archives with a short description and a link to the archive homepage.
Do you lack the necessary tools to successfully look for information about music?
You may book an appointment at the information clinic by contacting:
Ari-Pekka Lauhakari@uniarts.fi
At the Information Clinic you will be instructed in how to search for information within the field of music, how to use a thesis project template, get advice on parallel publishing, as well as advice in copyright matters relating to teaching, publication and artistic activity.
