What UE Libraries Can Do for You: Project Muse

Do you need research articles detailing what the Koran says about women’s rights, a review of the play Spring Awakening by Steven Sater (graduate of Evansville’s Harrison High School), a comparison of Jane Austen and J.K. Rowling, or analysis of the Epic of Gilgamesh? Project Muse is the database for you.

Project MUSE's mission is “to excel in the broad dissemination of high-quality scholarly content.” MUSE is a not-for-profit collaboration between participating publishers and the Johns Hopkins University Library. This partnership collaborates to provide 100% full-text, user-friendly online access to a comprehensive selection of humanities and social sciences journals.

Project MUSE provides

· full-text access to current content from over 400 titles representing nearly 100 not-for-profit publishers

· full-text versions of titles from many of the world's leading university presses and scholarly societies

· most articles available in both HTML and PDF

· online access to complete content of each journal issue—including all charts, graphics and images

· no embargoes on journal content —the MUSE issue typically appears online before the print version mails

· access to over a decade of backfiles for selected titles

· tools including citation exporting, RSS feeds, and social bookmarking to assist with saving and sharing favorite content.
