Consequently, it is concluded that there is no direct relationship between satisfaction with scores and the types of majors and satisfaction with sound recordings and types of degree programs. Providing comprehensive bibliographic information of work for easy retrieval, students should be instructed on how sound recordings and scores are organized, new sound equipment should be acquired such as players, headphones and other dubbing materials while existing equipment should be monitored, maintained and taken care of some of the recommendations.
