Due to the COVID-19 virus, the incoming MLS Music Specialization cohort at Indiana University had to quickly adapt to a year of online classes. With only half of the incoming students physically in Bloomington, it was difficult to begin learning the trifecta of hands-on library skills: public services, technical services, and archival work. Additionally, it was daunting and challenging to get to know everyone in the program due to the physical restrictions. However, the Students of Music Librarianship Group, or SMLG, was able to help alleviate these challenges by organizing virtual check-ins, casual hangouts, and professional development sessions where students could meet other music librarians to discuss unique aspects of their jobs. The authors also discuss how, despite this crisis, they have continued to build the necessary skills to succeed in our chosen profession and offer recommendations for how degree programs like theirs might adapt in the future.","PeriodicalId":35390,"journal":{"name":"Music Reference Services Quarterly","volume":"25 1","pages":"75 - 79"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-03-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48609950","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Specifically, the use of newspapers on microfilm has become seemingly superfluous as more and more newspapers become available electronically. This study examines graduate student opinions of and experiences with newspaper resources on microfilm to illustrate its perception among some academic library users. It also examines published opinions from researchers on the benefits of accessing newspapers on microfilm. Through an understanding of these benefits, libraries can weigh them against microforms’ physical footprint when making decisions about the fate of these collections.","PeriodicalId":35390,"journal":{"name":"Music Reference Services Quarterly","volume":"25 1","pages":"19 - 31"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-11-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44126384","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
