Grove finds its groove
But, as Daniel Griffin finds, the authority on all things musical doesn't handle the contemporary world quite as smoothly as the classical
' website review
Earlier this year the Grove Music Online website was merged with a host of other musical reference sources to create the Oxford Music Online (OMO) platform. Although Grove is now just one element of many on the OMO site, the Oxford University Press hails it as the "cornerstone" of OMO and "the unsurpassed authority on all aspects of music".
Considering the amount of musical reference information available on Grove alone, it is easy to see that the portal is formidable in its depth. But has the recent overhaul improved the existing structure? Will it lead to a more well-rounded and effective experience for its research user base?
The way search results are initially based is around either the Boolean, wildcard or quick search method. The search engine trawls the full text of every source available. Advanced searching allows the user to drill down into every category in Grove. The search potentially extends into bibliographic databases or works lists as well as the more typical full articles available.
