See JSTOR? You need a MyJSTOR account too! Here's how ...


The Whittaker Library subscribes to the Music package of JSTOR. Sometimes you need to read other articles, though. How to access them, when we don't subscribe to them?  

NOT a problem!  With a free MyJSTOR account, you can read items online.  You can’t download pdfs (but you can make screenshots and save them to a document!).

This is a VERY quick YouTube telling people how to set up a MyJSTOR account.  http://tinyurl.com/SetUpMyJSTORaccount
