New York-based not-for-profit digital library JSTOR has made more than 100,000 ebook titles from more than 275 academic publishers available on Rialto and OASIS marketplaces. JSTOR's unlimited, digital rights management (DRM)-free access model and integration with journals and primary sources creates an easy and familiar user experience for researchers around the world.
Title-by-title ordering is now available for JSTOR ebooks on Rialto and OASIS, and JSTOR’s tiered savings are available to libraries through both marketplaces. Demand-driven acquisition (DDA) for JSTOR on Rialto and OASIS will follow later.
The New School, the University of South Australia, the University of Glasgow, and the National University of Ireland, Galway worked with JSTOR on the early adoption of this release and contributed with valuable inputs on the integration for all library participants.
JSTOR is one of many publisher-direct options available for acquisition on the ProQuest OASIS online ordering platform which has long been used by librarians to select and acquire academic content, and the Rialto next-generation marketplace has been built to unify and streamline selection and acquisition workflows for academic libraries. Librarians can choose ebooks and streaming video from a rapidly growing number of platforms within their usual ordering workflow, simplifying the ordering and invoicing process. According to JSTOR, more publisher-direct options will be added throughout the current year.
