JSTOR

From the landing page you can begin with a basic search in either all content, limit your search to images, or switch to the Advanced Search. 

• Note: If you are accessing JSTOR on or off-campus and the banner at the top reads "Access provided by New Jersey Institute of Technology", your search is automatically limited to resources you have access to through NJIT. If you would like to see everything available, you have to specify this in a filter on the results page.

• Check out our Intro to Library Databases research guide and Introduction to Research guide to see more in-depth information about searching and narrowing down your topic.
• Enter your search terms into the search box.
  • You can use Boolean operators (AND, OR, NOT) in your search strings.
• Here is an example search on climate change:

Copy-and-paste version of search:

• "climate change"
• "climate change" AND "automotive industry"

• You can narrow your results by adding information to the search, such as additional keywords or author names.
• You can also refine your search using the Refine Results sidebar. In it you can search within the results or select information such as document types and publication years.
  • Note: The last filter in the panel is Access Type which allows you to either only see resources available through your institution, or view everything visible in JSTOR.
