Projects
These projects have been created with the intent of demonstrating new and interesting ways to explore and utilize the information in our collections. The work here has either been produced through the collaboration between external groups and JSTOR, by scholars who have been inspired by the JSTOR collections to create something independently or by JSTOR directly.
In addition there is a set of ATR created and maintained OSS software that you may find useful.
If you feel you have some research or tools that would be of value to the wider JSTOR community, or you are interesting in collaborating, please contact us!
