Jon Corelis A folklore book shelf (13) RE: A folklore book shelf 24 Mar 12


This project has now reached the point where it can be considered in production, though not complete: I may set up a separate web page as an entry point, but meanwhile you can access my public libraries here.
If there are any problems with seeing them, please let me know.

To recap, these book shelves list collections of various folk song traditions which are available in the U.S. (and maybe elsewhere)in full preview -- that is, you can read the whole book on line. Most of them you can also download. There are currently shelves for Breton, Cornish, Irish, Greek, Manx, Scottish and Welsh, though the Cornish one is still empty. Books on all shelves include musical scores except for the Greek, which has mostly text only.

The value of these shelves is that it's really not very easy to compile lists of such books using Google Books searches, so I hope that these shelves will save people some work.

I've closed the general Folklore shelf to public access, since it was really just a catch-all temporary storage space.

I hope people in this forum will find this useful. If you are interested, please check the shelves periodically, since I will expand them as I come across more books.
