Changes for JStor

JSTOR, one of the journal databases available to students, recently made significant changes to its web site.

New look for JSTOR

In addition to a new look, JSTOR also changed some functional aspects of the site:

  • You can create an account and save citations indefinitely, allowing you to better track your research.
  • You can limit searches by discipline and by journal title, making for more targeted results.
  • When you are presented with a Results list, you can search within those results as well. 

The Quick Tips box on the search page is helpful and is a great place to go if you want to learn more.  And, of course, you can always ask a reference librarian if you have any questions about JSTOR.
