I have got a couple of etudes from the violin etude series from CDSM. After stripping logos, how can I put these entries under a category like "violin etudes" so that they can be readily found by people who look for violin exercises?

Upload the scores according to Composer

and after it is uploaded you can add the page to the Violin page, which is here:

setting up categories / subcategories for etudes / exercises

That's great, but do we have a subcategory listing all etudes / exercises for violin? My works are not really for performance, but to develop techniques.

How can I set up a dedicated subcategory for violin etudes (for exercises by Honemann, Sevcik, Bang and others)

It would be nice if IMSLP also have PD exercises for other instruments.

we have a category Single instrumental piece (no piano), but that's it. Perhaps we shuold create a new "Studies" or "etudes" Category?

This would be a great idea! We definitely need a category called "Studies". Within this category, we can add a subcategory for each instrument. Moreover, we can have subcategories for public domain music theory and musicology books.

Plenty of other categories need to be created. I believe there was an idea of applying the Library of Congress headings. (This was months back.) And, yes, a clear separation of the books from the scores would help immensely.

Should we go ahead and plan the implementation of the Library of Congress heading system in IMSLP and IMDBP?

I agree kcleung, we need to create Violin Etudes / Methods section. Last time, I added such etudes to Violin Solo section .
