distributed print depositories / consortial print repositories for JSTOR volumes Kemp, Rebecca 20 Mar 2006 19:01 UTC

*Apologies for cross-posting*

Hello, everyone-I am trying to find out about any cooperative
initiatives that may exist to house print volumes that are available in
JSTOR or other online platforms (but I'm particularly interested in
JSTOR).  Two kinds of efforts I've learned of are distributed print
depositories, such as the initiative involving CRL, Michigan State
University, UIUC, and Yale; and centralized consortial repositories,
such as the ReCAP project of Columbia, Princeton, and NYPL.  Does anyone
know of any other programs?  Are there any state-wide repository
initiatives in the works anywhere?

I have not yet done an exhaustive literature / Google search, but I
thought I'd ask for leads.

I am happy to report back on what I find.
