A Doctor of Musical Arts thesis is not the same as a Master's or Ph.D. in music. The latter are treated the same as any other thesis or dissertation. Doctor of Musical Arts theses traditionally have two parts (see note below). One part is text in book format; the other is musical composition in score format. Pt. 2 is not always the score, nor pt. 1 the text. Use part numbers as found on the title pages of the two physical pieces. Before creating the bibliographic records for pt. 1& 2, examine the electronic resource and add a 500 note to indicate that there are 2 parts: the textual portion and musical score componetcomponent.

When the LTS thesis liaison is contacted by a patron or notified by Reference Dept. staff that a patron wishes to see a thesis before it has been processed, ask for patron's contact information (name, phone/e-mail) so that you can provide information on the availability of the thesis. Check the latest list of Advanced Degrees Conferred for the author. If the author does not appear on the list, the degree has not yet been conferred, though the thesis may have been submitted to a college department. If the author appears on the list, and we have theses awaiting processing, RUSH process if it is bound. If the thesis cannot be processed, or still unbound at the Bindery, inform the patron and/or Reference staff of the situation and the process of viewing an unbound thesis. If both un-bound copies are available, select the circulating copy for viewing. Carry the unprocessed thesis to the security desk of the Rare Books and Manuscripts Division in 2B Kroch Library, where the patron can view it in the secure reading room. When the patron no longer needs the thesis, RMC staff will notify LTS liasion liaison to retrieve the thesis for processing.
