JSTOR: Open Africa Program

As part of JSTOR’s mission to create an archive of scholarly literature and extend access to the archive as broadly as possible, we are proud to announce that JSTOR has adopted a plan to waive participation fees for any academic or not-for-profit institution on the continent of Africa. This plan affects new participants, as well as institutions that currently participate in JSTOR.

JSTOR is one of the most important electronic repositories of academic articles. It covers a wide range of journals from most academic disciplines and from a long period of time. While Internet access itself is often costly in Africa, this could greatly benefit the collaboration between African scholars and their colleagues outside of Africa.<—ca683579eef4251bb63f423e9db9501b—>
