I tried to add a separate Yelp listing for the Polley Music Library. It is housed within Lincoln's…read moremain public library. It's a special music-specific selection of media and programs. Fortunately, your Lincoln library card will allow you to enjoy all this (unfortunately, for me, I live in Omaha and we don't have a music library). We visited here to see a lecture/performance by the iconic free improvisation saxophonist Jack Wright. I was really impressed with the programs being offered here. Scott is really helpful and it's obvious that he really cares about all things music. This was my first visit here, I will definitely be back.
