Music Research Guide: Music Curriculum Materials

In the JFL, materials for teaching music K-12 are housed in the Curriculum Library. This library uses a combination of the Dewey Decimal system for teaching resource items and an in-house system for organizing textbook series.

• The first line indicates the grade level - (in this case SEC=Secondary)
• The second line is the subject area
• The third line is the publishers initials followed by copyright date and grade level.

TRM stands for Teacher Resource Material, followed by the Dewey Decimal number and then the author's initials. Teacher Resource Materials are housed against the far wall in the Curriculum Library.
