Our Picks in Classical Music Albums, Art & Music Books


Oftentimes, books and audio-visual materials in the arts aren't at the top of the list for public librarians to see when ordering books from large distributors. Nowadays, public libraries lean towards popular or trending books because their demand is higher. This new list is our quest to present books and albums in the arts that may be trending in the arts world or can be used to  create programs for the public. Each item contains the audience that would most likely be interested in using the material.
