All:
I look forward to seeing you all again in Boston! I would like to formulate a proposal for vote at our section meeting along the following lines.
AASL does our community an excellent service by providing us with "Core list of periodical titles for a first-degree-program in architecture for architecture libraries in North America."
A recent review of JSTOR demonstrates that while Art History fairs pretty well in coverage, core Architecture journals are sorely lacking.
I am interested in proposing that our section in conjuction with AASL petition JSTOR to offer the titles from the AASL core list as an Architecture package. Of course we would have to ask our rep to AASL to forward the proposal to AASL for support.
Does anyone know if this is already on JSTORs plate? Does anyone know if AASL has already petitioned JSTOR?
Thanks,
Patti
