JSTOR

JSTOR is a research and learning platform with scholarly and primary-source material across more than 70 disciplines. Its collection contains more than 12 million academic journal articles, millions of primary sources, ebooks, and Artstor images and multimedia. Advanced search and discovery tools help locate content. Workspace lets users save, annotate, organize, upload and share research in folders, then export it as PDFs, PowerPoints or ZIP files. A free personal account can read up to 10 eligible articles online every 30 days, though publisher policies exclude some articles. Users may connect a personal account to a subscribing institution for remote access. JPASS Monthly costs $19.50 per month and includes unlimited reading from 2,400+ academic journals and 10 PDF downloads per month. JPASS Yearly costs $199.00 per year and includes 120 PDF downloads per year. JSTOR supports mobile browsers, keyboard navigation and screen readers, and accepts requests for accessible versions of content. Its audience includes students, educators, librarians and researchers.
