MLA "Notes" Journal calls Garland Encyclopedia of World Music "An important source for world music"
"I commend ASP for creating digital access to [Garland Encyclopedia of World Music]. . . . I found it to be a valuable resource. The ability to search the over 9,000 pages of this work is wonderful, and the free Muisc Online interface allows for federated searching across other ASP databases. . . . An important source for world music."

Access to recordings in [Jazz Music Library] is intuitive and available even from results screens. . . .
