From Pauline Saliga:
I am delighted to report that the online edition of the JSAH, which will
be launched in March 2010, will be enormously strengthened by a new
partnership between JSTOR and the University of California Press, our
publisher. This is described in the announcement pasted below. The
partnership will begin releasing the full line of UC Press journals in
2011, but JSAH Online will be the inaugural journal to be published
under the new partnership, appearing a year earlier.
What this means is that the JSAH will reach a much wider readership and
that all of the work that our JSAH Editors have done in the past three
years to develop a multimedia online journal will be incorporated into
the new UC Press/JSTOR publishing platform. That platform will allow
JSAH Online — and other UC Press journals that follow suit — to
incorporate film, video, sound, 3D models, GIS, and a variety of other
multimedia images.
Congratulations to JSAH Editor David Brownlee and JSAH Online Founding
Editor Hilary Ballon for creating a journal that is truly breaking new
ground in humanities scholarship.
JSAH Online will premiere in March 2010. In its inaugural year, it will
be distributed only to individual SAH members.
