The Drill Hall Library<\/a> based on our Medway campus is a fantastic resource for Music and Audio Technology students, containing many relevant physical collections, including books and journals.<\/p>\n

The following book classmarks are relevant for Music and Audio Technology. Every book has a classmark (a code on the book spine) which tells you exactly where the book is in the library. Use the catalogue LibrarySearch<\/a> to find books on a topic or if you have a reference for a book title, then note the classmark and availability of the book to find it on the shelves, see this video Finding Books at the Drill Hall Library<\/a> for more information. The classmark also describes the subject so have a look at the shelves close to the book to find other relevant titles.<\/p>\n
