Yes, we do. JSTOR is a stable archive which we determined will have our titles available to us long-term. It saves much-needed space; however, we do retain some titles on the shelves in print for two reasons: 1) high-use of the print journal and 2) large graphics content -- one title in particular contains fold-out maps too difficult to view online.

We have added our first JSTOR collection and I have a couple of questions. I've noticed on my exchange listserv that JSTOR titles are offered.
I would like to know if your library participates in JSTOR:
1. Do you retain your print titles that are availalbe in JSTOR?
a. Why?
b. Why not?
Thanks,
