Shalom is trialing the JSTOR Secondary Schools Collection until Wednesday 21 June 2023 for all students and staff.

The JSTOR Secondary Schools Collection is a package of more than 2,700 archival journals. All the main disciplines on the JSTOR platform are included, from literature and history to biology and mathematics.

Timely content focusing on emerging areas such as sustainability and international security and peace is also included. Journal issues start from the first issue and extend up to a publication date usually set in the past three to five years.

The Secondary Schools Collection also includes millions of primary sources from four individual collections, featuring pamphlets, manuscripts, letters, oral histories, government documents, images, 3D models, spatial data, type specimens, drawings, paintings, and more.

In addition, schools have access to more than 6,000 Open Access scholarly ebooks. Chapters are discoverable side by side with all the other content on JSTOR.

Why is JSTOR so important for schools?

JSTOR is widely respected by major universities for its quality and functionality and provides the same content to your students that they will encounter in university or college. Learning to use JSTOR during secondary school gives students added confidence and prepares them for the rigours of university research, while enabling teachers to incorporate important scholarly content into their classes.

JSTOR also provides an easy-to-use platform with a suite of tools for research and study. To date, more than 1,500 secondary schools subscribe to JSTOR via JCS Online Resources.
