Project Muse Reduction

As one element in the Libraries' budget reduction effort, the Project Muse subscription will be reduced from the Premium Collection to the Standard Collection.


Project MUSE is a not-for-profit collaboration between libraries and publishers meeting the goal of disseminating quality scholarship by providing full-text online access to current humanities and social sciences journals. The Standard Collection is a subset of the Premium Collection-the most comprehensive collection offered by MUSE.  Over 300 high quality, peer reviewed journals are included in the Standard Collection-63% of the titles available in the Premium Collection. Journal titles available in the Standard Collection may be viewed at Project Muse.


Contact Kathy Bartelt, Collection Development Librarian, (kb4@evansville.edu) with questions.
