Abstract: Web-scale discovery tools are rapidly gaining popularity as a purported "one-stop search" for discovering library information. Music, particularly printed music and recordings, presents unique information retrieval needs. This article identifies, explores, and makes recommendations regarding key music-related aspects to consider when selecting and implementing a discovery tool, considering scope, metadata, and interface.
