Chicago State University now has access to JSTOR
JSTOR is a high-quality, interdisciplinary archive of scholarship striving
to preserve over one thousand academic journals in both digital and print
formats. Its goal is to expand access to scholarly works and other materials
needed for research and teaching globally.
Chicago State University has access to two major JSTOR collections, Arts and Sciences 1 and Arts and Sciences IV.
Arts and Sciences 1 (119 titles) includes core journals in economics, history, political science, and sociology, as well as in other key fields in the humanities, social sciences, ecology, mathematics, and statistics. Arts and Sciences IV (112 titles) has a strong focus on the professions of business, education, and law, and also includes titles in psychology, public policy and administration.
