The HyperLibrary is a simple application, really–it allows participating music organizations to have any number of logins to the system which allow their music library to be entered, edited, and maintained. Full-text search is available, program notes, difficulty, style, ensemble type, and other information can be attached to each piece. Library numbers are automatically assigned. The location of pieces can be listed, and full reports can be printed. The best part is that partcipating ensembles can search other groups’ libraries and initiate requests for loans between organizations. The HyperLibrary is coded completely in PERL with MySQL as the data tier. Membership is free for all community and civic organizations.
