Six New Publishers and 38 New Titles Join for 2014

 

JSTOR is pleased to announce that the 2014 catalog and price list for the Current Scholarship Program (CSP) are now available online at http://about.jstor.org/content/about-current-journals.

 

JSTOR is again pleased to offer complimentary e-access for the remainder of 2013 for new 2014 subscription orders received by September 1, 2013. Complimentary 2014 e-access is not available for journals that are new to the program for 2014. Please contact participation@jstor.org for more details.

 

The Current Scholarship Program, which integrates current journals alongside archival content on the JSTOR platform, continues to grow steadily since its launch in 2011. A total of 269 titles, 38 of them new to the program, will be available for the 2014 subscription year. Forty-four leading publishers are participating in the 2014 program, and we anticipate additional journals will be added for the 2014 subscription year.

 

The 2014 program will also feature two open access titles: Textual Cultures, from Indiana University Press, and Signs and Society, from The University of Chicago Press.

 

Institutions may subscribe to current journals in the Current Scholarship Program as single titles, discounted publisher packages, discipline collections, or the discounted Complete Current Scholarship Collection. All current issues prices are set by participating publishers, and some publishers and titles offer pricing tiered according to JSTOR classifications. Orders can be placed directly with JSTOR or via your subscription agent. JSTOR also offers reserve accounts, which institutions may use to set aside funds for later allocation to JSTOR offerings. Institutions interested in setting up a reserve account with end-of-year funds can contact participation@jstor.org for more information.

- Eastern Group Psychotherapy Society
