Access JSTOR Database

JSTOR provides a full-text archive of almost 200 core scholarly journals in the humanities, social sciences, and sciences. The service digitizes and provides enhanced indexing to complete collections of these journals, starting with the very first issues, many of which date from the 1800s. Current issues are not included and there is a fixed period of time, from 1 to 5 years, between the most recent issue of any journal and the most recent issue available in JSTOR. Cole Library has the Arts & Sciences I and II Collections, which include some journals from various disciplines with an emphasis on social sciences and education. A very extensive journal archive.
