About JSTOR ONLINE

Welcome to JSTOR ONLINE – your trusted digital gateway to academic research, journals, and scholarly publishing. We are a fully independent online platform dedicated to making high-quality academic content discoverable, accessible, and publishable in a rapidly evolving digital world.

Founded as part of Europeans24 Media Ltd., a Zurich-based media company, JSTOR ONLINE represents a forward-looking initiative to bridge the gap between knowledge production and digital access. Our aim is to create a reliable academic ecosystem where researchers, educators, students, and independent scholars can read, publish, and share research without unnecessary barriers.

Our Mission

At JSTOR ONLINE, our mission is rooted in three core principles:

  1. Accessibility – We strive to remove barriers to academic knowledge by providing open and subscription-based access to a wide range of journals and research papers.
  2. Independence – We are not influenced or affiliated with any academic institution, political body, or corporate stakeholder. This allows us to maintain editorial neutrality and intellectual diversity.
  3. Innovation in Academic Publishing – As a digital-only platform, we leverage cutting-edge technology to support seamless publishing, peer review, and discovery, all within a user-friendly environment.

Legal Disclaimer

It is important to note that JSTOR ONLINE is not affiliated with JSTOR.org (ITHAKA), nor do we represent or collaborate with JSTOR.org, Wiley, SpringerLink, ScienceDirect, SSRN, Sage Journals, or Taylor & Francis. While we recognize and respect the important work done by these organizations, JSTOR ONLINE operates entirely independently.

Our use of the name JSTOR ONLINE is solely intended to communicate our focus on journal networks and academic research in an online context. We are a distinct entity with our own editorial board, publication processes, and technological infrastructure.

A Fully Digital Experience

JSTOR ONLINE is 100% digital. We do not operate physical libraries, research centers, or administrative offices for public access. All of our services – including publishing, submissions, peer review, user support, and access – are conducted exclusively through our website and digital communication channels. This allows us to serve a global academic audience with speed, efficiency, and transparency.
