JSAH Moves to New Publishing Platform, HighWire

Jun 29, 2015 by SAH News

SAH would like to announce that its JSAH publishing partner, University of California Press, has moved their suite of online journals, including JSAH Online, to a new publishing platform, HighWire Open Platform from Stanford University’s HighWirePress. JSAH is now available online at jsah.ucpress.edu. (SAH members, please see below for instructions on how to access the journal.)

Speaking of the move, UC Press Director Alison Mudditt commented, “As the ways in which students and researchers consume information evolve, UC Press felt it critical to seek a long-term hosting partnership that will allow us to take full advantage of new avenues to make scholarly work accessible and relevant in an increasingly dynamic digital space of our own. We believe that our collaboration with HighWire will support us in this.”

Since 2010 UC Press content had been part of the Current Scholarship Collection at JSTOR. While UC Press will no longer include its current journal issues in this collection,  its content will still be available on, and form part of, the JSTOR archive collections. The new UC Press HighWire platform went live earlier this month, and when you log in you will see that, in addition to the current issue, the full JSAH archive from 1941 to the present is available on the HighWire platform.
