To all the music lovers at NU: Smithsonian Global Sound for Libraries is now available!

Smithsonian Global Sound for Libraries is a music audio archive and an educational resource that delivers the world's diverse musical expressions online and in an informative way. It is a project of Smithsonian Folkways Recordings and the Smithsonian Center for Folklife and Cultural Heritage. This new acquisition by the NU Libraries allows NU educators and students access to full-length streams of the vast audio database of the Smithsonian from your desktop anytime, from anywhere.

Above all, Smithsonian Global Sound offers broad accessibility to the "smaller voices" of people all over the world. It aims to heighten communication among and about people and cultures, accomplished principally through the culturally potent, meaning-laden medium of music, accompanied by informative notes, images, videos, educational features, and lesson plans.
