Subject: RE: TABLES of CONTENT are welcome!
Myst, you may not have seen one of the threads on them but there are a number of web-sites, through libraries such as the Library of Congress, that offers the ability to view/download sheet music which is in the public domain. I don't recall if we ever set up a thread for those links but they are scattered through the Mudcat. Also Masuto gave us a wonderful resource nearly a year ago. The Library of Congress has an archive which you can search through. In that archive search are links to DOWNLOADABLE books. The COMPLETE books found in a library somewhere. Not everything is available, but many items such as the Child Ballads books and many hard to find resources are available. And as PDFs, you can view them at up to 500% magnification. Most don't have music in them, but as resources for lyrics are phenomenal. They also have videos and recordings of live performances and a lot of other material as well.
