Thanks to ACA, we have access to over 30,000 titles from leading academic publishers, including Harvard, Yale, Princeton and MIT university presses. There are no limits on downloads or printing, and there is no need to use special software or create a login. It's just like using journals on JSTOR.
The ebooks are available in JSTOR, alongside our JSTOR journal collections, so book and chapter results will come up along with journal articles.
If you are a faculty member and would like to use the ebooks in a course, you can add the stable URL for a chapter or a full ebook to a syllabus or inside Sakai. With some of our other ebook collections, there are limits on how many people can access a book at the same time, but that's not true with JSTOR books, so they are excellent for class use. If you need help setting up those links, contact us in the library.
The books will be in our online catalog soon (along with about 300,000 other electronic books and all the print books you know and love in our stacks), and I'll let you know when that happens, but until then, you can only access the JSTOR books through the database. You can find JSTOR on the Research A-Z list on the Jones Library website.
