Our Music Online databases, which allow you to listen to streaming jazz, classical, African American, world, or folk music, now offers versions of their music that can be listened to on certain mobile devices.  For up to 48 hours, if your phone has access to a 3G network, you can listen to Music Online recordings, even when not going through the Spokane Public Library website.  Just click on the mobile phone icon and follow the instructions and help screens to see how the service works.

Click on the topics to the left to discover useful research resources, including:
