Music Library
The CSU Music Library, a branch of CSU Libraries, is located on the first floor of the Schwob School of Music in the RiverCenter for the Performing Arts. As the largest collection of music-related media materials, scores, books, and journals in the Columbus area, the Music Library serves not only the specialized needs of the CSU School of Music, but also the needs of alumni, area musicians, music educators, community members, and students of all ages wishing to take private and group lessons in the Schwob School of Music Preparatory Division.
Two-hour street parking is available nearby and a parking garage is located opposite the Broadway entrance.
Non-CSU visitors are asked to sign the guest log at the Music Library Service Desk. Current picture I.D. is required to use equipment and media.
