   Summary:

   The American Music Loan Libraries Project, originally established as the Music Distribution Project, was one of many initiatives conceived by the United States Office of the Coordinator of Inter-American Affairs to promote inter-American cooperation and boost the United States image in the Americas beginning in the 1940s. The reports, correspondence, repertoire lists, and other files help document the project's work to supply depositories with music, recordings, and books on music from the United States and to provide access to the materials.
