WHAT IT IS:

Smithsonian Global Sound includes an extraordinary array of more than

cultural group, among other fields.

WORKS ON THE SAME PLATFORMS AS THE WELL-KNOWN CLASSICAL MUSIC LIBRARY:

The service incorporates three key teaching tools designed to direct
students toward course-related music:

-- Course Folders:
Librarians and educators can organize and share course music with students
in a secure and simple way.  This tool can either tie in with an existing
digital audio reserve or be used as a stand-alone access point.

-- Static URLs:
All Course Folders and individual recordings reside at permanent URLs that
can be sent to students by e-mail or posted to online teaching
applications such as Blackboard or WebCT.

-- Custom playlists:
Users can create and save their own password-protected playlists.
