New Access for Groves Music Online
New as of July 1st! Now when you access Groves Music Online, you'll be taken to the Oxford Music Online site. A gateway into music research and the access point for new and forthcoming Oxford music reference subscriptions and products, Oxford Music Online currently includes Grove Music Online, The Oxford Companion to Music, and The Oxford Dictionary of Music.
You may search all three resources at once, or by selecting specific databases, you may limit your search to your choice of resources.
This new format provides new searching strategies within Groves Music Online. First and foremost is a new structure. We now group together, under one search result, all Grove articles on a single subject (e.g. Mozart or Paris). The first article linked to by a search result is now the ‘primary’ Grove Music Online article on the subject, and it is subject to a regular updating and revision programme. Other articles, from specialist dictionaries such as The New Grove Dictionary of Opera and The New Grove Dictionary of Jazz, second edition, are now available via a link from this primary article. These articles are static and will not be regularly updated. By singling out one article on each subject as our ‘primary’ online article, we will be able to ensure consistency of the content, while still making other points of view available.
See What's New for more specific information on the new structure, new searching capabilties, etc.
