Please allow two weeks to receive your piece(s). It may take more time if you have ordered a large quantity of music.

All music checked out to you is numbered and will be accompanied by an Instrument Check-Out Form or a Vocal Music Inventory Form. Please check the order when you receive it. If you find discrepancies between the forms and what was received, call or email the VAPA Music Library immediately. You will be held responsible for problems not reported within one week from the date issued (found above signature).

The VAPA Department stores over 12,500 titles. It is our sincere hope that most of your needs can be met by what we have in inventory. However, new music can be purchased at your request if:

1. You would like a piece or arrangement that we do not have.
2. We do not have a full set of parts on file and you wish to reorder.
3. The piece you have selected is currently out.
4. Funds are available.

Requests to order new music must be submitted in email or on a Music Listing Sheet. Please include your site and name at the top of the form. List all selections in priority order.
Band/Orchestra Teachers: Please turn in orders for scores early. We will not pay for rush orders.
At this time, teachers are limited on new music orders. Please check with the music library for limitations.

It is the teacher’s responsibility to return all music by the appropriate due date. (December for Holiday music and May for all other music)
All music must be returned in numerical order. Music not returned in order will be returned, or held for you to sort. Please return the inventory sheet with the order.
Music may be returned in person or via district mail.
You/your site will be responsible for replacing missing parts (ordering new parts). If the piece is out of print, exchanges and payment may be required.
Late music/missing parts/unpaid bills will result in the following:

1. No further music will be sent to you.
2. No further instrument repairs will be approved.
3. No further district transportation will be provided.

Please clear up all bills before leaving for vacations or separating from your site.

Music cannot be renewed. You may submit a music request form to receive a piece again. It will be mailed to you near the start of school.
