Interface change: All EBSCOhost resources will see a major change in the interface in July 2025 (postponed from January 2025). Personal accounts on that platform should be transferred over with minimal disruption.
RILM is one of the primary music publication indexes and abstracts with hundreds of thousands of records, covering a wide variety of document types such as articles, books, bibliographies, dissertations, Festschriften, ethnographic recordings, conference proceedings, and reviews. Available on the EBSCOhost platform, advanced searching allows multiple specifiable fields combined with Boolean connectors as well as result limiters such as abstract available, collected works, scholarly journals, place and date of publication, document type, and language. Laurier Library began providing access to this resource on EBSCOhost in May 2015. Previously it was provided on the ProQuest platform.
