Morphology
The meaning 'a collection of music recordings or scores' is directly and compositionally derived from 'music' (musical works) + 'library' (an organized collection). This noun compound follows a regular English pattern and similar constructions exist in many languages, so a B1 learner who knows both words will readily infer the MWE meaning.
Etymology
Music library puts music into a library, and you can imagine shelves or a computer full of songs, albums, and sheet music instead of books. That's why it means 'a collection of music recordings or scores kept so people can find and use them easily'.
