RISM and the R Projects

Monday, June 2, 2014

RISM is currently prominently featured on the website of the Music Library Association (United States). It appears alongside its sister projects:

• Répertoire International de Littérature Musicale (RILM) International Repertory of Musical Literature
• Répertoire International d’Iconographie Musicale (RIdIM) International Repertory of Musical Iconography
• Répertoire International de la Presse Musicale (RIPM) Retrospective Index to Music Periodicals

Together, these four projects are known as the R projects of musicology. As is written on the website of the R projects, “the principal function of the Rs is to create the necessary bibliographical research tools that identify and facilitate access to this extensive body of primary sources.”

All four R projects are jointly sponsored by the International Musicological Society (IMS) and the International Association of Music Libraries, Archives and Documentation Centres (IAML).
