You are advised to use SuperSearch as the comprehensive gateway to resources and the sub-category Ethnomusicology is recommended. More about SuperSearch, from Researching Music tutorial, Faculty of Music, University of Melbourne.
For first-time users, this website is designed as a guide to the main sources of information for your study and research. Search the databases to find journal
articles, books and other publications
of interest. Within the results lists,
will sometimes link to the articles online
if they are available. When 'Source it'
fails, or if your article is not online,
you can use the Music
Journals List A-Z, or, for local print
issues, search the journal title in the
University
of Melbourne Library Catalogue. If
we do not hold the items you need, eligible
patrons may request them through the Interlibrary
Loans service.
If you have a question about locating the information you need, contact us for expert assistance.
