How To Order

The OUP Music Hire Library requires all orders to be confirmed in writing, allowing at least 30 days advance notice, to ensure that the material is available for your concert.

There are various methods of placing an order.

Enquiries can also be sent by email, by fax to +44(0)1865 353767, or by writing to us. View OUP Music Hire Library's full contact details.

If your request is urgent, please telephone the hire library on +44(0)1865 353323, and we can advise you further.



What information do I need to give when placing an order?

There is certain essential information that we need before we can process your order. To save time and to speed up the ordering process please ensure that your order contains the following:
  • Your performance details - when, where, who is performing, and who is conducting
  • Exactly what you require - please give as much information as you can (Composer, title, and the version you want)
  • The individual string numbers you require (if applicable)
  • The date that you require the material (and first rehearsal date if known)
  • The delivery address, and the invoice address (if different to the delivery address)
  • Your contact telephone number
  • The quoted price for hiring the material if you have previously requested it


Other information that you should be aware of
  • All hire orders for hire materials from OUP must be placed at least 30 days before you require delivery of the material - if less notice is given we cannot guarantee to have the material available
  • Material may be collected by prior arrangement from our Oxford address.
  • We use the CityLink courier service to deliver the majority of our orders. They require a signature on delivery, so please ensure that there will be someone available to sign for the parcel.
  • Payment of a hire fee does not grant permission to perform copyright music. We are happy to advise on the copyright and performing right status and requirements for any title in our Hire catalogue.
  • The Music Publishers Association hire guidelines for amateur groups can be found by clicking on this link: mpaonline


What does hiring music cost?

Our prices for hiring music can be supplied on request. Telephone, fax, or email us and we will be able to provide you with a quote for hiring the material that you need. We will supply a hire quote for one month, and one performance unless we are specifically asked otherwise. Please be aware that we will also need to charge a postage fee if we are sending the material to you.

After the material has been dispatched to you we will then issue an invoice for payment. PLEASE DO NOT SEND ANY PAYMENT WITH YOUR ORDER.
