MusicLib

MusicLib — Music Score Library Management for Musicians and Organizations

MusicLib is a digital music score library management system built for individual musicians, choirs, ensembles, and music organizations. It replaces spreadsheets, filing cabinets, and scattered folders with a single platform to catalog, organize, search, and share your entire music collection.

Catalog Your Entire Library

Upload PDFs of your scores and tag them with detailed metadata — composer, arranger, voicing, instrumentation, genre, key, difficulty level, language, and more. MusicLib extracts text from scanned PDFs using OCR, making even handwritten or older scores fully searchable.

Organize With Collections and Setlists

Group scores into hierarchical collections that mirror how your library is actually organized. Build ordered setlists for upcoming performances with drag-and-drop reordering, notes per item, and venue and date tracking.

Track Checkouts and Reservations

Know exactly who has which scores and when they're due back. Create reservations so members can request scores in advance. No more lost parts or missing copies.

Multi-User Access With Role-Based Permissions

Invite your section leaders, librarians, students, and staff with customizable roles and granular permissions. Directors control who can create, edit, delete, and view scores. Role names are fully customizable to match your organization's structure.

Works Everywhere

MusicLib runs on any modern browser and is available as a native iPad app with offline support, Apple Sign-In, and full drag-and-drop functionality. View and annotate PDFs directly in the app.

Built for Organizations

Create an institutional library and invite your entire ensemble. MusicLib supports multiple organizations per account, so directors working with more than one group can manage everything from a single login. Scalable capacity packs grow with your organization from small chamber groups to large choral societies.
