Research on JSTOR Slide Deck

Make a copy 

This reusable Google slide deck can be copied and adapted for your own use as needed. It’s designed to support those presenting to students, faculty or other colleagues about the features on JSTOR that support research. It includes:

• key points to remember about features
• suggested student activities 

• links to relevant JSTOR Support pages

Robust research LibGuides for JSTOR are available here on this site (guides.jstor.org) and help all types of researchers use JSTOR most effectively. All guides are open and free, and Springshare library customers are welcome to copy the subject and how-to guides to their own LibGuides sites and customize them with library branding and additional information.

The JSTOR Quick Start handout is a brief introduction to JSTOR for researchers and students, and includes basic searching tips and frequently asked questions. 

We also recommend bookmarking our Orientation resources page. On this page, librarians and educators will find resources for training, information on collections, and updates regarding new content and tools on JSTOR. It's a great link to send to faculty or share on your school's LibGuide for teaching resources. 

When a student struggles to find a research topic, when a faculty member is looking for a discussion prompt for a particular class, or when you want a great short read based on scholarship, try JSTOR Daily.

It is an online magazine that provides context and background to news stories and current events. The authors of JSTOR Daily articles are journalists and academics, and all pieces link to content freely available on JSTOR for deeper reading. 

Research Basics is a research fundamentals series developed by JSTOR in conjunction with librarian partners. The course has a scope broader than JSTOR-specific instruction. Its three, standalone modules include self-paced video lessons, interactive learning activities, and mastery quizzes to help high school students acquire knowledge and develop skills in the area of general academic research. As learners complete each module, they earn badges to share. Research Basics is open to everyone.
