JSTOR

NOTE: Once an account on JSTOR is created, it is not necessary to create another account to use the other various components of JSTOR (such as JSTOR Contributed Collections or JSTOR Primary Sources). Once a JSTOR account has been made, the same account is used across all JSTOR components. 

DISCLAIMER: Making an account is not necessary to use JSTOR. If no account is created, the user can sign in by institution.
