New Database @ your library–JSTOR

Thursday, January 12th, 2006

Look for it on the ZCL web site under “Quick Links�—“Zanesville Exclusive Databases.�

JSTOR (Journal STORage) is a non-profit organization that archives scholarly journals. They provide an electronic depository of full-text electronic journals in a variety of disciplines.

Please note–JSTOR uses a “moving wall” (usually 3-5 years) for issues available. For example, articles that appeared in the journal Econometrica are available from the years 1933-1996 (as of July 2002).

I have purchased the Arts & Sciences I Collection which includes the complete back runs of 119 titles in fifteen disciplines. Established in 1997, it is JSTOR’s first collection and includes many of the core research and society published journals in economics, history, political science, and sociology, as well as in other key fields in the humanities and social sciences. This collection also includes a selection of titles in the more science-oriented fields of ecology, mathematics, and statistics.
Title List

You may also browse titles by these disciplines. A search for “Appalachia� resulted in 1056 results; a search for “Wife of Bath� resulted in 403 results. Have fun.
