Download Old Sheet Music from Web Site
By Mickey Sadler

Here's a site for anyone searching for sheet music for old songs.

Duke University Rare Book, Manuscript, and Special Collections Library,

    http://scriptorium.lib.duke.edu/sheetmusic/

has a searchable database with songs from 1850 to 1920.  The sheet
music is scanned and can be downloaded and/or printed.  Some of the
sheet music that is not available on-line can be ordered from the
library.  Be sure to check their Statement on Use and Reproduction and
the Technical Information and FAQ.  There is come good info on how the
music was scanned and cleaned up.

Later,  Mickey
