Music Library

Help me give my students a music library! As the students' musical talents grow, so will their need for more sheet music. More sheet music means a need for somewhere to organize this music, a musical library!

My Project

The students are gaining more musical skills each day, and these skills warrant new materials, such as sheet music. Sheet music can become cluttering, and it needs to be organized effectively and efficiently. Having a filing cabinet for the loose papers and a bookshelf for their methods books would help free up space in their ensemble rehearsal space. It would also allow for more opportunities for leadership roles; there could be student librarians, and the section leaders would be able to grab the sheet music for all the students in their section quickly at the start of each rehearsal.
