Help You?

MusicLib is sheet music library management software for musicians, choirs, orchestras, bands, schools, and music organizations. It serves as both a personal digital sheet music organizer and an institutional library management tool for ensembles of any size. Upload and organize music scores (PDFs), create collections and setlists, track checkouts and reservations, and share your music library online with your group.

Yes! MusicLib is completely free and includes up to 50 scores, 500 MB of storage, collections, setlists, search, forScore import/export, and a sandbox institution (up to 3 members & 25 scores). Upgrade to MusicLib Pro at $9.99/month for unlimited scores, OCR search, backup & export, and full institution management. See our pricing page for details.

MusicLib supports PDF files for music scores. You can upload individual PDFs, bulk import via CSV, or import from forScore backups (.4sb files). Scores can include rich metadata like composer, arranger, voicing, key, genre, and more.

Yes! MusicLib has full forScore compatibility. You can import forScore backups (.4sb files) to migrate your existing library, and export setlists as .4ss files that open directly in forScore. The iPad app includes native forScore import with streaming upload for large libraries.

Yes! MusicLib is available as a native iPad app with support for Apple Sign-In, iOS Files app integration, the Share Sheet for importing PDFs, and haptic feedback. The iPad app includes all features of the web version plus native capabilities.

Institutions let organizations share a music library with their members. You can create an institution, invite members, assign roles (student, contributor, director, admin), customize permissions, and track checkouts and reservations. All plans — including the free tier — can create institutions. Upgrade to Pro for full institution management (200 members, 3,000 scores), or contact us for custom MusicLib for Organizations plans.

Yes! Pro subscribers can export their entire library (scores, collections, setlists, and metadata) as a single .musiclib file. This can be used for offline backups, migrating between accounts, or sharing your catalog. You always own your data.

OCR (Optical Character Recognition) automatically extracts text from your PDF scores, making them searchable by lyrics, markings, or any text that appears in the sheet music. This Pro-tier feature means you can find scores even when you only remember a lyric or annotation.

You can cancel your subscription at any time from the Subscription page in your account settings. Cancellation takes effect at the end of your current billing period, so you'll retain access to paid features until then. Your account will revert to the free tier, and you'll keep read-only access to all your content.

MusicLib is designed specifically as sheet music library management software rather than a general file manager. It understands music metadata (composer, arranger, voicing, key), supports forScore import, includes OCR for searching inside PDFs, and offers built-in checkout tracking and setlist building. Unlike spreadsheet-based systems, MusicLib gives your whole choir, orchestra, or band shared multi-user access with role-based permissions. It manages both your digital scores and physical library inventory.
