Review:

"Public librarians will kill for a reference book like Ellen Luchinsky's "The Song Index of the Enoch Pratt Free Library. The "Song Index will prove highly useful to librarians and patrons trying to locate favorite songs." -Against the Grain "A welcome addition to the available print indexes to song collections. Libraries of all types will want to acquire a copy and benefit from the breadth and depth of indexing done by the Pratt Library's staff for nearly a century. The broad range of collections indexed make it an essential purchase." -ane Gottlieb, Head Librarian, The Juilliard School "Anyone who has ever worked in a public library knows the frustration of trying to fill the enormous demand on the part of the public for songs. This publication of the renowned song index from the Enoch Pratt Free Library will go a long way toward making many librarians' lives much easier." -Susan T. Sommer, The New York Public Library
