JSTOR Access Issues (Updated)

October 15, 2015: JSTOR access problems have been resolved. Thanks for your patience! If you have any problems accessing JSTOR or other databases, please ask a librarian

Are you having problems getting to articles in the database JSTOR? Unfortunately, they’ve been experiencing intermittent access issues for the past few days. In a recent email to libraries, they said:

Yesterday and today, we have been experiencing intermittent, site-wide access issues that affect use of JSTOR. Our engineers are working hard to restore stable access as quickly as possible. Please watch our Platform Updates page for service alerts about these issues. We will post the most current information on that page, as we have it.

We apologize for this interruption and thank you for your continued support of JSTOR.


We will share any additional information as we have it.

In the meantime, if you are unable to access an article in JSTOR, please ask a librarian for help.
