Wednesday, January 20th, 2010

JSTOR, that powerhouse of a database, is expanding Art’s and Humanities section by including rare 19th and 20th century Art Periodicals. Founded by the Met, Frick Collection, and the Brookly Museum, this will increase the titles by another 140 by the end of 2011. This collection will be called: Arts & Sciences VIII Collection.
