JSTOR provides museums with access to nearly all archival journal collections for one set of fees: Arts & Sciences I – XV, All Thematic Collections, Life Sciences, Business IV, and 19th Century British Pamphlets
Museums may also choose to add the Jewish Studies Collection, the Hebrew Journals Collection, the Ireland Collection, Struggles for Freedom: Southern Africa, World Heritage Sites: Africa, and Global Plants for a separate set of fees.
Classifications
Subscriptions fees are based on your institution’s JSTOR classification. There are five JSTOR classifications for Museums: Very Small, Small, Medium, Large, and Very Large.
Classification is based on size, budget, and library holdings at your organization. To receive your JSTOR classification, contact us at participation@jstor.org with the following information:
- Institution Operating Budget: The overall operating budget for the latest year available
- Library Materials Budget: The budget for library acquisitions
- Periodicals: The number of active serial subscriptions
- Curatorial and Library Staff: The full time employment (FTE) of assistant, associate, and full curators, and the FTE of library professionals and support staff
