Saw this on another list and thought our Atlantian artisans might
find it useful for research. I haven't tried this particular access
personally, but there is a JSTOR contact e-mail at the bottom of this
message if folks have questions or need assistance.

PS- For folks who aren't aware of JSTOR, it is a collection of
reports & articles on a variety of topics. Usually, access is limited
to (typically) academic institutions, which can cause frustration for
the "regular" SCA hobbyist trying to use it for research. Happy
hunting!

Early Journal Content on JSTOR, Free to Anyone in World
On September 6, 2011, we announced 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. This
?Early
Journal Content? includes discourse and scholarship in the arts and
humanities, economics and politics, and in mathematics and other
sciences.
It includes nearly 500,000 articles from more than 200 journals.
This
represents 6% of the content on JSTOR.
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. 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.
The Early Journal Content will be released on a rolling basis
beginning
today. A quick tutorial about how to access this content is also
available.
We encourage broad use of the Early Journal Content, including the
ability
to reuse it for non-commercial purposes. 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. For more information, you can read a new section
about
Early Journal Content in our Terms & Conditions of Use.
If you would like to be notified of the first and subsequent
releases of
the Early Journal Content, you may follow us on Twitter or Facebook.
Please read our Frequently Asked Questions if you have additional
questions about the Early Journal Content or contact us at
.

Content
