What's in our Sneak Peek Case?

Banned Book week is coming. 

But it's not a new phenomenon, nor is it just books! Come visit our peep-show case and see what's inside. 

All of the titles in the case represent a story, a recording, or a person that has been challenged in some way over time. Some people were arrested, others banned from telling their stories through music. Other stories have raised concern for nearly a millennium.

The list includes the author (performers & composers are authors too!), the title, and the call number from the UWM Music Library collection. A link to the pdf is at the bottom of the page.

 

Here are a few examples of what you'll see.

Smith, Patti. Horses. 

Z AMY 5050

Strauss, Richard. Salome/Elektra. 

ML50 S918 S32 1988
