“I cannot remember a time when I was not in love with them–with the books themselves, cover and binding and the paper they were printed on, with their smell and their weight and with their possession in my arms, captured and carried off to myself.”
— Eudora Welty (b. 13 April 1909)

Remembering Herbert Huncke who was born 105 years ago this month. “who walked all night with their shoes full of blood on the snowbank docks waiting for a door in the East River to open to a room full of steam-heat and opium,” [Herbert Huncke photobooth snap, 1946 leaving New York City for Houston. It was Huncke that showed up at Allen’s apartment near the East River, bloodied feet and destitute.

Reader, I ate his heart in the marketplace.
“New Orleans spent more than half its time steeped in the past. Living and dead slept close together, and time here was twisty. It flowed sideways like a cat, to rub against the living or jump them, out of the shadows, and sink in claws and fangs.”
— Susan Shwartz, “The Carpetbagger”
“Let your soul stand cool and composed before a million universes.”
— Walt Whitman, “Song Of Myself”

I majored in English in undergrad because I loved to read.
I went on to do a M.A. in English because I loved to write.
Now I’m an English Professor and don’t have time to do either one 🤷♀️
“Do not tell everyone your story. You will only end up feeling more rejected. People cannot give you what you long for in your heart. The more you expect from people’s response to your experience of abandonment, the more you will feel exposed to ridicule.”

We can address this! First, friendly reminder - JSTOR is not a publisher and is a non-profit organization. We work with publishers to digitize and make searchable their copyrighted work, so we do not own any of the content that is on JSTOR. But! did you know that JSTOR has worked with our publishing partners to make that content available in a variety of ways for those not at higher ed institutions?
1. Graduated? Graduating? Check to see if your uni offers alumni access here.
2. We offer free online reading programs. Sign up for a MyJSTOR account and you can read up to three articles online every two weeks. More info on how to register here.
3. Open Access content - everything published prior to 1925 in the U.S. and 1870 abroad is free to read and download. Additionally, there are more than 500 open access ebooks and a number of open access journal articles that publishers have made available. You can find these by performing a search and then, on the results page, in the left-hand side bar, scroll down and click “Read and Download” while you are not logged in.
4. Many public libraries offer access to JSTOR - check with yours. NYPL and BPL are two that do off the top of my head.
5. JSTOR Daily is our online magazine - outside authors write articles on a number of topics but must cite their sources from articles on JSTOR! And we link to and open the articled that are cited in each story. So, you can read the short version and explore the research that supports it.
I hope this is helpful!
Heads up, kids
This is excellent information but I’m dying to know….
Why is @jstor better about responding to complaints than @staff?
OH HEY, THIS AGAIN.
Update! Tech recently made a change where ALL OF THE OPEN ACCESS CONTENT ON JSTOR IS SEARCHABLE WITHOUT A LOGIN.
This now includes 2,700 ebooks (up from 500 when we originally reblogged this) and something like 500,000 open articles (keep in mind though, most of these are published pre-1925). There are 19 open access journals that are still posting their work on JSTOR too.
ANYWAY, this is all FREELY SEARCHABLE WITHOUT A LOGIN. GO HERE: http://www.jstor.org/open/
