Hurley Music Library
Centenary mourns the recent loss of Music Library director, Dr. Ron Bukoff.
The Hurley Music Library is the only music library in the Arkansas-Louisiana-Texas tri-state region. Our library houses a large collection of scores, compact disks, videocassettes, and LP's, as well as a comprehensive reference collection. Music books and journals are located in nearby Magale Library, the main library on campus. The Hurley Library Music also contains a music computer lab, listening carrels, a conference/class room, and a spacious reading room.
The Hurley Music Library is used by wide range of constituents both at Centenary College and in the wider surrounding communities of Shreveport and Bossier City. In addition to servicing students and scholars, the Music Library provides a wealth of material of interest to museums, radio stations, newspapers, and magazines.
The American flamingo (Phoenicopterus ruber) is the mascot of the Hurley Music Library.
Drop by to meet Ringo, Spartacus, Felix, and Spot.
Thanks to the generosity of patrons, Hurley Music Library houses a number of Special Collections available for study and examination within the library:
- Virginia Carlton Collection of West African Musical Instruments
- Robert Murray Opera Collection
- David Redwine Opera Recordings Collection
- Wayne Sanders Collection of Broadway Sheet Music
We have a specific Collection Development Policy that explains our acquisition policy, including the acceptance of gifts.
