Give to the Music Library
The Music Library is a rich resource for not only the School of Music faculty, staff, and students, and the ECU campus community, but also for area residents and regional musicians and teachers. The Music Library greatly appreciates the interest and support of those who visit our facility, use our resources and services, and contribute to the library’s growth and development by making monetary gifts and materials donations. Gifts and donations add an important dimension to the continuing process of collection and facility development.
