Brio - Special Issue Celebrates Claimed From Stationers' Hall network
.
A couple of years ago, one of our librarians was awarded an AHRC networking grant to establish the Claimed From Stationers' Hall network, studying early British legal deposit music and the libraries that received it.THIS WEEK, a special issue of Brio will hit library shelves in the UK and beyond - it's dedicated to papers about not only early legal deposit music, but also modern musical copyright issues. A fascinating read - look out for it!
Brio is the official professional journal of the International Association of Music Libraries (UK and Ireland Branch). We are grateful both to the branch for allowing us to produce this issue, and to the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland, who kindly granted an Athenaeum Award towards the publication of this special issue.
