The "Fabio Schaub" Library and Media Resource Centre provides access to its collected documentary material and offers guidance on research methods and retrieving data and information.
Access to the Library and its services is open to all residents of Switzerland. The Management may also grant access to non-residents upon submission of a documented request. Items may only be requested for loan on-site.
The accessible documentary material consists mainly of:
Printed music: printed musical editions (scores, parts, vocal scores, etc.) of the Western classical instrumental repertoire
Musicological literature with a historical, analytical, and interpretive focus
Sound recordings (CDs) and video recordings (DVDs)
The Conservatorio della Svizzera italiana also has a media library reserved exclusively for students and teaching staff. Students and teachers can work at the available computers using a login provided during registration week in September, for which a password must be set.
