Ra, ra, ra for the music student who complained about the state of the listening facilities in the library. The record collection is good, but the equipment is stuffed, headphones don't work sometimes, interference is frustrating, adequate staff service minimal (one has to wait in a line of people for varying periods of time in order to relisten to a track, or to avoid one of the numerous scratches) and sometimes listening in the art exhibition area is very inconvenient (with other people interfering and not being able to read the score properly (and why are the music scores not closer to the records?)

In my view the whole system needs to be considered with an eye to complete replanning. Perhaps there should be a music room in the library with records and listening facilities, with scores near by, and with suitable staff to run it.
