**  Information about the directory /libraries/www/music/ **

~~~ The ROOT LEVEL of this directory (/music/) contains folders (sub-directories) as well as individual files.


~~~ The INDIVIDUAL FILES include the basic files needed to make the
directory work:

	index.html
	music-footer.txt
	colorbar-template.html (which you will need if you want to create new pages in the directory)
        colorbar-music.css (the style sheet for this directory; any changes will affect any pages linked to it)
	
as well as the "Questions" cluster:

	ask-music.html
	ask-music.txt
	thanks.html
	
and certain other basic pages linked to from the index page:

	circ.html
	contact.html
	contents.html
	local.html
	othercatalogs.html
	reserves-faculty.html
	reserves.html

- as well as some pages which may actually serve as intermediate steps to a sub-directory:

	guidecall.html (links to /music-classification/)
	journal.html	(links to and from new-titles.html)
	new-titles.html (links to /news/)
	

~~~ The SUB-DIRECTORIES exist to prevent the root directory from filling up with confusing clutter.
They include groups of files which seem related.

1) /activities/ contains

	index.html
	exhibit01.html and the attached aardvarkzoo.jpg
	larsen.html
	look-alike (which is a folder holding two sub-folders containing information about the 
	1995 and 1996 look-alike contests)

This would be a good folder in which to place new exhibit, lecture or contest pages.


2) /facilities/ contains pages about the physical space of the library:

	index.html and the attached Veni.mp3
	article.html
	canon.html and the attached canon1s.gif and canon2s.gif
	speech.html
	student-guide.html
	tour (which is a folder containing the Music Library Virtual Tour)
	

3) /img/ contains images which might be used generally in the Music Library site, but are unlikely 
to be used by other libraries at MIT

3.5) /images/ contains a copy of the old /images/ directory
from the old site, so that back issues of the
 "what's the score" newsletter can still point
  to images here without breaking


4) /music-classification/ contains transferred and re-built pages based on the 
music classification page in the Staff Web directory, to which the Music Library site
used to link. 


5) /news/ is a directory which contains dated subfolders.  For example, /401/ contains new materials for April 2001:
 
	 books.html
	 cdrom.html
	 cds.html
	 reference.html
	 scores.html
	 video.html
 
 --  and home.html, which is the April 2001 issue of "What's the Score."

The index to the files contained in this folder is found in 
 new-titles.html, at the root level of the /music/ directory.  

Evenutally the folder will hold more sub-directories, named according to the dates they are 
up-dated.

The /news/ folder also includes 

	news-index.html

which is an index to the What's the Score newsletter.  


6) /sheetmusic/  contains the Inventions of Note collection.
