JSTOR and Project Muse are an academic's best friend. However those from developing countries often find themselves having difficulty in accessing these scientific archives. Good thing, the Global Development Network allows eligible researchers access to scientific and academic journals.
Registering with GDN also allows you to be a member of a robust development network, with annual awards for best papers of young academics, too.
This was lifted from GDN's site:
"In cooperation with J-Stor, GDN offers Free Access to J-Stor Collection to GDNet Registered Eligible Researchers. Through J-Stor, registered researchers can retrieve scanned images of journal issues and pages as they were originally designed, printed, and illustrated.
JSTOR offers both multidisciplinary and discipline-specific collections. These options are designed to provide flexibility for libraries and institutions to choose the sets of journals and collection that are appropriate for their needs.
GDN has granted access to J-Stor Journal Collection to GDNet Registered Eligible Researchers on the Knowledge Base. Researchers will be provided with access to Business I and II and Arts and Science II and VI Collections.The current Collection brings together titles in Economics, Finance, Education, Social Sciences, Political Science, Archaeology, Marketing, Managements and more.
To access any of the collections stated above, please log into your profile available on the GDNet website using your username and password (www.gdnet.org/update ). Once you are logged in, please click over “Your registered services” and choose J-STOR."
If you are not a member of GDNet researchers’ community, please feel free to register your profile online(www.gdnet.org/register) and benefit from other online servicesavailable(www.gdnet.org/online-services)."
