Hi ,
I am from India . I have seen many Indian Music CDs in Libraries here.
Still I want some other good India film music CDs which are not available
in libraries around . Is there any way that we request for some CDS and
you can get it ( buy it )from somewhere.
Answer
Yes libraries are happy to receive requests for possible acquisitions (for CDs or any other material). You can make these requests in several ways. First there are special acquisition request forms in libraries that you can fill out and return either to a special box recerved for these requests or directly to library personnel. Second you can, of course, go to a library and make a verbal acquisition request. Finally you can contact libraries by e-mail and make your request in that way.
Please note that it is important that you specify your request as well as possible. Also in your case the request is best to direct to a library with a music department. In Helsinki the Itäkeskus library's music department specializes in film music so perhaps that would be the best library for your request. The e-mail address of Itäkeskus library is: itakeskus@lib.hel.fi and their web site is at http://www.lib.hel.fi/itis/eng/index.html. However, you are free to make your request to any Helsinki City Library.
