JSTOR Daily: Your Favorite New(s) Site

x_l-p4ODIn June, JSTOR started their new online magazine, JSTOR Daily.  The site features news stories that focus on Arts & Culture, Business & Economics, Politics & History, Science & Environment, and Education & Tech.  The stories use articles in JSTOR’s collection as resources to “provide insight, commentary, and analysis of ideas, research, and current events.”  Each week contains feature articles as well as daily blog posts.  JSTOR Daily believes that a good story is one that:

  • tells thought-provoking stories that appeal to a general reader
  • draws on scholarly research to provide fresh insight into the news media and current affairs
  • deepens our understanding of the world
  • highlights the amazing content found on JSTOR
  • exposes the work of scholars who are using JSTOR to conduct their research

The online magazine is where “news meets its scholarly match,” and could be key in introducing students to what JSTOR has to offer.
