SCELC Community Digital Collections represent many perspectives chronicling the academic, cultural, and historical record of our member libraries.
Through the SCELC JSTOR Digital Stewardship Program, SCELC enables our member libraries to tell their individual stories but also to contribute to the preservation and accessibility of our shared culture across religions, ethnic and racial groups, academic disciplines, and traditions.
SCELC is an opt-in consortium composed of private academic, research, and medical institutions, with a predominance of small and medium-sized libraries. SCELC represents 100+ Member institutions, over 200+ Affiliate institutions, with a combined student population of over 1.4 million.
A values-aligned partnership
“We have been looking for the right partner and services to support our Member libraries’ aspirations for impactful and sustainable digital collections programs… JSTOR gives us a path forward to meet libraries’ immediate needs and to build for the future with a values-aligned partner.”
