Just in time for the solar eclipse - be inspired by Presser Music Library’s display of the solar system in celebration of Gustav Holst’s orchestral suite, The Planets. Performed earlier this semester by the Wells School of Music Symphony Orchestra (video here), The Planets is one of the most renowned classical pieces in the world. Explore resources related to the music and the composer, including the book What is a Horoscope and How is it Cast, which served as inspiration for Holst’s depiction of our planetary neighbors. Check out our online guide to The Planets, full of links to resources about Holst’s work and others like it.
University Libraries is converting our call number system from Dewey Decimal to Library of Congress (LC) classification system. LC is widely used in research libraries and benefits student success and faculty research:
Beginning July 2024, new books will receive an LC call number and will be shelved separately from books with Dewey call numbers. The current collection will be converted systematically, and books will be moved with the LC collection. Please visit the project webpage for updates and more information, including tips on how to navigate the changes. Staff are always available to help! Please stop by the Library Help Desk for assistance.
