A virtual library of some 2,700 pieces of sheet music published in California between 1852 and 1900, together with related materials such as a San Francisco publisher's catalog of 1872, programs, songsheets, advertisements, and photographs. Images of every printed page of sheet music from eleven locations have been scanned at 400 dpi, in color where indicated. In 2007 some 700 sheet music editions were added from the library of the Society of California Pioneers. Initially (1997-1998, 1999-2000) the project was funded by the U.S. Institute of Museum and Library Services under the provisions of the Library Services and Technology Act, administered in California by the State Librarian. The archive of digitized images is maintained by the Museum Informatics Project, Univ. of Calif., Berkeley.  | |
