- JSTOR offers a dramatically reduced fee model for any not-for-profit institution in the developing world. Institutions will receive access to all available collections.
- Eligible countries: Afghanistan, Azerbaijan, Bangladesh, Bhutan, Georgia, India, Indonesia, Iraq, Nicaragua, Pakistan, Vietnam.
The ACF is a one-time only fee per collection designed to ensure that JSTOR has the necessary resources to meet its archival obligation to migrate data and software systems as technology evolves. Some collections, when licensed individually, require a one time Network Participation Fee rather than an Archive Capital Fee. The Network Participation Fee (if applicable) is used for purposes broadly associated with facilitating access.
The AAF is intended to cover the ongoing costs of maintenance, user services, and administration required to support your access to collections in JSTOR. The AAF is invoiced on a calendar year basis.
