JSTOR Online Journal Archive

"...carry the keys of the world’s library..."

The Library is pleased to provide access to JSTOR electronic journal archives for alumni. We hope it will play a valuable role in meeting your professional, scholarly and everyday information needs.

The JSTOR collection, one of the most heavily used by Bowdoin students and faculty, includes full-text access to articles in core academic journals in a wide range of disciplines.  As a journal archive, JSTOR typically provides complete coverage of a journal from its first volume to volumes published within the last 3-5 years, although some journals are covered up through their current issue.
