Thanks Andrew!

Quick question, what is the difference between this openlilylib page and the
other http://lsr.di.unimi.it/LSR/Search website?

Are these the same snippets overlapped or are they different content? I've
only really known about and used the http://lsr.di.unimi.it/LSR/Search but
openlilylib looks great! Love the layout and material.
