Posted on by

OSU Libraries has acquired the JSTOR Arts & Sciences II collection. JSTOR offers a high-quality, interdisciplinary archive to support scholarship and teaching. It includes archives of leading academic journals across the humanities, social sciences, and sciences, as well as select monographs and other materials valuable for academic work. The entire corpus is full-text searchable, offers search term highlighting, includes high-quality images, and is interlinked by millions of citations and references.

Arts & Sciences II adds to the library’s current JSTOR holdings (Arts & Sciences I, Ecology & Botany, and Health & General Science) and is home to 127 titles. This collection adds depth to many disciplines introduced in JSTOR Arts & Sciences I, such as economics, history, and Asian studies. Arts & Sciences II also offers core journals in several new disciplines, such as archaeology, classics, and African, Latin American, Middle Eastern, and Slavic studies.

The full list of titles and dates of coverage for Arts & Sciences II is available here.

Ingenta Table of Contents Alerts notice

Posted on by

The Oregon State University Libraries is cancelling its subscription to Ingenta Connect as of August 1, 2009. In anticipation of this you will find suggestions for alternative research alerting services available at: http://ica.library.oregonstate.edu/subject-guide/611-Keeping-Current-with-Research?tab=2121 .

• In lieu of Ingenta for your Search Alerts, we recommend using a broad database like Web of Knowledge/Science as the closest equivalent to the broad coverage of Ingenta OR
• You may want to see if the subject specific database you use most frequently has an alerting service.
• In lieu of Ingenta’s Table of Contents alerts, we recommend you use the free JISC Table of Contents alerting service called “ticTOCs” ” (see at: http:// www.tictocs.ac.uk/), OR
• Ingenta offers a free personal Table of Contents services for up to five (5) titles. You fall in that category. If you would like to use the free version you can set this up by going to: http://www.ingentaconnect.com . Note: This is probably better done from off campus or after August 1 so you do not inadvertently end up at our current institutional subscription site.

If you need additional assistance setting up search alerts please contact your subject librarian. If you are unsure which librarian covers your department, refer to this listing: http://osulibrary.oregonstate.edu/staff/college-dept-specialists
