Project MUSE have completed the migration of 90 journals from the JSTOR Hosting Program, which closed recently following a grace period ending February 28, 2022. Forty-one (41) of these journals were already available on the MUSE platform to MUSE collection subscribers, and their publishers have now migrated both institutional and individual single title subscribers to the MUSE platform.
The remaining 49 of the migrating journals debuted on the MUSE platform over two years, starting in 2021 and then in early 2022. All but one of these journals took advantage of MUSE’s journal hosting services; one journal, Classical Journal, joined the MUSE Premium Collection.
“We are thrilled to provide a new home for so many not-for-profit journals, many of which come to us directly from scholarly societies and academic departments,” said Elizabeth Brown, Publisher Relations Manager, Project MUSE. “We appreciated being able to work closely with JSTOR to provide as smooth a transition as possible for these publishers and for the journals' subscribers.”
