There has been some good news from YouTube this week.They have just launched a new service called YouTube Audio Library. It allows people to download copyright free music. Although there are no lyrics, there is a huge range of music to choose from and it will be a great platform for us to use with our students to access free music downloads. The ISC will set up its own account and students will be able to access it from the relevant places on the portal and on Libguides.Until that is set up, here is a link to my account YouTube Audio Library if you would like to check it out.
All the music embedded in the library can be browsed through the following criteria:
1- Featured
