Hi Patti,
On several occasions, when asked for input on titles that JSTOR should
pursue, I did submit all of the AASL core list titles. Where JSTOR
stands on negotiating for these titles, I could not say, but I've often
wondered whether one problem JSTOR may have with our desired titles is
that they are not all 'scholarly' (we have professional practice titles
on our list). And there's the issue of indexing advertisements (all
those building product ads, competition announcements, job
announcements, etc.). Still, I certainly believe that it is worthwhile
to ask them what is in their pipeline, and to continue to pursue our
desiderata titles!
Best,

Subject: [ARLIS-L] Architecture section proposal
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
