JSTOR, the preservation archive and research platform arm of the not-for-profit ITHAKA, is offering free access to journal content in JSTOR published prior to 1923 in the US and prior to 1870 elsewhere. This 'Early Journal Content' includes discourse and scholarship in the arts and humanities, economics and politics, and in mathematics and other sciences. It includes nearly 500,000 articles from more than 200 journals (6 percent of the content on JSTOR).
JSTOR currently provides access to scholarly content to people through a growing network of more than 7,000 institutions in 153 countries. Making the Early Journal Content freely available is a first step in a larger effort to provide more access options to the content on JSTOR for independent scholars and other people also.
The Early Journal Content will be released on a rolling basis, effective immediately. A quick tutorial about how to access this content is also available.
