Répertoire International de Littérature Musicale (RILM) will offer a 90-minute workshop on research techniques with focus on bibliography, historiography, online databases, and research tools relevant to ethnographers and practitioners in the field of ethnomusicology, especially graduate students and junior scholars. Depending on participants’ interests, the workshop may include discussions on navigating databases and online resources, dictionaries, encyclopedias, popular music primary resources, and reference works and conducting research in languages other than English. The topic of abstract writing may also be covered. Through short research project presentations, guided discussion, breakout groups, and other activities, the workshop offers a unique setting to engage in global dialogue and exchange and expand critical debate on recent research within the field of ethnomusicology while acquiring or bolstering solid research techniques. The workshop will be led by RILM staff. Those wishing to participate should send an abstract summarizing their research interests and a short bio via Google sheet that will be sent out on 1 October 2025.
