ArtStor to drop Java

We are pleased to announce an update that will elim­i­nate the need for Java in the ART­stor Dig­i­tal Library. In the near future, sin­gle image down­loads will be deliv­ered in zip files.

ART­stor has been using Java for down­loads of indi­vid­ual images, but recently the U.S. Depart­ment of Home­land Secu­rity began rec­om­mend­ing that Java be dis­abled due to secu­rity con­cerns. After our update, users who down­load sin­gle image files will receive a zip file that con­tains a JPEG image and an HTML file with the asso­ci­ated meta­data. In addi­tion to remov­ing the need for Java, using zip will allow ART­stor to pur­sue other fea­ture enhance­ments, such as addi­tional options for image group downloads.

For some users, mainly those on PCs, it will be nec­es­sary to install soft­ware such as 7Zip to unzip their down­loads. Please do take this time to make users at you insti­tu­tion aware of this impend­ing change. We will of course be pro­vid­ing updated help documentation.If you have any ques­tions, please do not hes­i­tate to con­tact User Ser­vices at userservices@artstor.org.

 

NEW content: JSTOR Arts & Sciences X and XI

The Libraries now has access to both the JSTOR Arts & Sci­ences X and XI col­lec­tions. Arts and Sci­ences X is being pur­chased in coop­er­a­tion with the Fac­ulty Coun­cil on Uni­ver­sity Libraries, which in March 2011 gained the Fac­ulty Senate’s unan­i­mous approval of a res­o­lu­tion to estab­lish the Fac­ulty Fund for Library Excel­lence, described as “ a Uni­ver­sity gift fund avail­able for cur­rent and emer­i­tus fac­ulty donors to sup­port the Uni­ver­sity Libraries’ col­lec­tions.” JSTOR Arts & Sci­ences X is an espe­cially appro­pri­ate use of funds donated so far because of its broad cov­er­age in Busi­ness and the Social Sci­ences, the His­tory of Sci­ence, Tech­nol­ogy & Medicine.

Arts & Sci­ences XI is being acquired with Libraries’ funds, and “ will expand JSTOR’s cov­er­age in the human­i­ties, with schol­ar­ship in core fields of Lan­guage & Lit­er­a­ture, His­tory, and Art & Art His­tory. Com­pris­ing a min­i­mum of 125 titles, the col­lec­tion will  include impor­tant jour­nals in Clas­si­cal Stud­ies, Archi­tec­ture & Archi­tec­tural His­tory, and Music. Other dis­ci­pline clus­ters will include Bib­li­og­ra­phy, Library Sci­ence, Reli­gion, Phi­los­o­phy, Archae­ol­ogy, Per­form­ing Arts, Film Stud­ies, and Linguistics.

Access is avail­able now.  Records for indi­vid­ual titles are in process and will be avail­able in a few weeks.

Change in platform/access url: Avery index to architectural periodicals

Along with most of the OCLC First­search data­bases, Avery index is no longer avail­able on the First­search plat­form and has migrated to the Ebsco­host plat­form.  Record chang­ing is in process.

The Amer­i­can and inter­na­tional jour­nals indexed include not only schol­arly and pop­u­lar peri­od­i­cal lit­er­a­ture, but also pub­li­ca­tions of pro­fes­sional asso­ci­a­tions, Amer­i­can state and regional peri­od­i­cals, and the major seri­als on archi­tec­ture and design of Europe, Asia, Latin Amer­ica, and Aus­tralia.

Change in access for History of Science, technology and medicine

His­tory of sci­ence, tech­nol­ogy and med­i­cine is migrat­ing from OCLC First­search to the Ebsco­host plat­form.  Record chang­ing is in process.
