Thread Name: Music Research at Library of Congress?
Subject: RE: Music Research at Library of Congress?
.....I have lots of questions. What metro stop do I use? What street is it on? What hours is it open?

I imagined I would want to look at and listen to books and recordings of old time American music. What part of the library did Joe Hickerson work in? Does the Folk Archive Reading Room have american folk music? Who might be good to talk to?

I have a cabin at Smallwood State Park for a few days and then I thought I'd find a B&B in the city. Nathan gets a week off from his school every year for a learning trip and this is what we decided we want to do.

Of course, I prefer to stay in the woods...I'm very open to advice about being in the Capitol and I always have instruments with me...hg
