The Musical Acoustics Research Library
The Musical Acoustics Research Library (MARL) is a collection of independent archives or libraries assembled by distinguished groups or individuals in the field of musical acoustics research. MARL is directed by representatives of each member collection, in conjunction with the Center for Computer Research in Music and Acoustics (CCRMA) at Stanford University, which maintains the contents of each library. Currently, MARL is comprised of the Catgut Acoustical Society Library, the Arthur H. Benade Archive, the John Backus Archive, and the John W. Coltman Archive.

MARL consists of an extensive collection of files compiled by or about many of the most prominent acousticians of our time. The vast majority of the library contents is in hardcopy form and may be viewed at CCRMA by making arrangements with Gary P. Scavone.
