Since 2006, when I decided to major into the Library and Information science, it has been a fascinated journey for me. An interdisciplinary field that applies the practices, perspectives, and tools of management, information technology, education, and other areas to libraries; the collection, organization, preservation, and dissemination of information resources; and the political economy of information.
I am quited pretty fortunate to work in an academic library, where the exceptions is the subject domains are at a higher level of knowledge management. Here, part of my work, I am sharing a creation of my own digital library with the community.

Music Library
“… human knowledge systems provide a means for sharing, expressing, understanding, knowing, and gaining insights into one’s inner and outer worlds. Considered alongside other knowledge systems such as language and mathematics, what unique contributions can music make? Music provides unique and invaluable insights into the human condition. Music allows us to know, discover, understand, experience, share, or express such aspects of the human condition as feelings, aesthetic experiences, the ineffable, thoughts, structure, time and space, self-knowledge, self-identity, group identity, and healing and wholeness…”- DONALD A. HODGES [University of North Carolina at Greensboro]
And, Prof. Lee Chu Keong (Nanyang Technological University) shares out a graduated course in School of Communication & Information called Music Libraries. This is where Prof. Lee picked up and shares the course with Swanwick’s (1994) Model of Musical Knowing. In the model, musical knowing consists of four layers or strands. Although the layers are typically woven together, they can be separated out for the purpose of analysis. The course started with Swanwick’s (1994) Model of Musical Knowing. In his model, musical knowing consists of four layers or strands (Fig. 1). Although the layers are typically woven together, they can be separated out for the purpose of analysis.
Music Libraries Researches
1) Music and the Malay Community
In this research focus, we are going to look into the development of the Music developments in the Malay community. The study will try to cover old artists to the new artists.

Ever since, New Media is introduced in 2004, many artists is trying to adopt New Media as an alternative channel of marketing. Indirectly, they are actually creating a social memory entity in the music community knowledge management areas , where the Swanwick’s (1994) Model of Musical Knowing is very applicable and is transparent today.
