Get ready for an exciting and modern upgrade to your choral experience starting this Fall! Beginning September 1, 2025, Westminster Choir College will be integrating nkoda, a cutting-edge digital music library platform, into our choral programs. This shift is designed to enhance learning, streamline rehearsals, and increase access to musical scores.

Why nkoda? A Score of Benefits for You!

nkoda offers instant access to an incredible collection of over 140 music publishers and 130,000 editions, including a vast array of choral scores. This means:

· Instant Access to Repertoire: Say goodbye to delays! You'll have immediate access to all your choral scores, allowing for more flexibility and responsiveness in repertoire choices.

·  The nkoda database also includes solo repertoire and can also be used for applied music lessons.

· Enhanced Annotation: Mark up your scores digitally with ease! Highlight, annotate, and take notes directly on your tablet, then edit or share them seamlessly.

· Integrated Learning Tools: Practice smarter with built-in tools like metronomes and multi-view options, and even link to audio recordings for deeper score study.

· Eco-Friendly: This transition significantly reduces paper consumption, contributing to Rider University's sustainability efforts.

· Portability & Organization: All your scores, consolidated on one device. No more lugging around heavy binders!

The Collection Development Committee (CDC) and the library faculty have decided to switch from Nexis Uni to HeinOnline, which are both legal resources. Prior to our decision to switch from Nexis Uni to HeinOnline, the subject librarians identified any courses with a legal component. The subject librarians then surveyed the faculty members assigned to those courses. The results determined that most faculty members were not using Nexis Uni to find legal resources. Some faculty members reported that they already were using HeinOnline.  Based on the survey feedback and librarian trial feedback, Moore Library decided to cancel our subscription to Nexis Uni and to subscribe to HeinOnline.
