[Eril-l] Eril-l Digest, Vol 72, Issue 2

I think for music dbs it really depends on the program. I find at Berklee
we get a lot of requests for Indie Bible, which is more of a pdf but useful
for students looking to break into the music industry and we have a number
of popular music subs that may or may not be suited for your program. We
get the most of the ones Heather and Beth mentioned as well as: Medici.tv
(we have a dance program in addition to classical music), lots of Alexander
Street Press (some of their metadata is severely lacking and unfortunately
makes it hard to find things but overall lots of stuff and has sheet
music), Babelscores (contemporary composers), and Music Periodicals
Database from Proquest, which is good for music publications.
