JSTOR now requires log-in for export of citations

The new user interface for JSTOR has been released. It appears to be working properly; however, users must now create a MyJSTOR account to be able to:
  • Save citations
  • Email citations
  • Export citations to bibliographic software
  • Accept JSTOR Terms and Conditions once
  • Update your MyJSTOR profile
This means users will have to create a JSTOR account before they can export to RefWorks. I will update the instructions on the RefWorks page.

Discussion about this addition has already started on some LISTSERVs. Many feel the log-in is unnecessary and not respectful of user privacy.

Individual titles from the Annual Reviews collection should now show up in Find Periodicals and Article Linker. MARC records for the Felix Catalog should arrive in the next update from Serials Solutions.

Direct export to RefWorks is available and directions have been posted on the RefWorks export instruction page.

Funding for this resource was provided through a TAF request.
