On September 6, 2011, we announced<\/a> that we are making journal content in JSTOR published prior to 1923 in the United States and prior to 1870 elsewhere freely available to anyone, anywhere in the world.\u00c2\u00a0 This \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Early Journal Content\u00e2\u20ac\u009d includes discourse and scholarship in the arts and humanities, economics and politics, and in mathematics and other sciences.\u00c2\u00a0 It includes nearly 500,000 articles from more than 200 journals. This represents 6% of the content on JSTOR.<\/p>\n

While JSTOR currently provides access to scholarly content to people through a growing network of more than 7,000 institutions in 153 countries, we also know there are independent scholars and other people that we are still not reaching in this way.\u00c2\u00a0 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 these individuals.<\/p>\n

The Early Journal Content will be released on a rolling basis beginning today. A quick tutorial<\/a> about how to access this content is also available.<\/p>\n

We encourage broad use of the Early Journal Content, including the ability to reuse it for non-commercial purposes.\u00c2\u00a0 We ask that you acknowledge JSTOR as the source of the content and provide a link back to our site. Please also be considerate of other users and do not use robots or other devices to systematically download these works as this may be disruptive to our systems.\u00c2\u00a0 For more information, you can read a new section about Early Journal Content in our Terms & Conditions of Use<\/a>.<\/p>\n

If you would like to be notified of the first and subsequent releases of the Early Journal Content, you may follow us on Twitter <\/a>or Facebook<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Please read our Frequently Asked Questions<\/a> if you have additional questions about the Early Journal Content or contact us at support@jstor.org<\/a>.<\/p>\n
