Your institution holds rich and unique collections that are critical to research, teaching, and learning. Yet these resources can be difficult for scholars to discover and use, and time consuming and expensive to support. We can help.
Through decades of offering trusted non-profit resources like JSTOR and Portico, ITHAKA has built the infrastructure services that enable you to make your collections discoverable without paywalls to a global community of faculty, students, and researchers, and to ensure your content remains accessible for generations to come.

Share your collections openly on JSTOR, the platform where millions begin their academic work. Like hundreds of institutions, you will find publishing to JSTOR is fast and reliable thanks to our easy collection-loader tool and a healthy system of backend support. Researchers can access your collections, without paywalls, alongside a rich trove of journals, books, images, audio, video, and other primary source materials, bringing greater value to the learner and your institution. In fact, the first 300 institutions sharing 1,600 collections garnered more than 3.3 million item requests from 234 countries and territories, with 63 percent of traffic coming from the open web.
