In 2014, JSTOR launched a new online publication designed to introduce academic scholarship to a broader audience. Since its launch, JSTOR Daily(daily.jstor.org) has published more than 2,500 open articles that address current affairs and link back to academic content on JSTOR for context and insight. The content on JSTOR is open and free to anyone when following links from the Daily.
We invite you to join Cathy Halley, editor of JSTOR Daily, for a free 45-minute webinar on December 15.
