Products that have MARC records
JSTOR works with OCLC to offer free, high-quality MARC records in OCLC WorldShare Collection Manager for the following products:
- Journals
- Books
All records include the JSTOR Stable URL for each title in the 856 field. At this time we do not provide MARC records for primary sources, images, or research reports.
Journals
Libraries and institutions with an OCLC Cataloging subscription can search for and find JSTOR journal collections in OCLC WorldShare Collection Manager and manually select it in order to obtain MARC records.
Please note that due to low volume, it can take several weeks to complete serials cataloging. If you don't see new collections right away, this may be why.
If you do not have an OCLC Cataloging subscription, you can download a KBART file for your institution's holdings.
Books
Books at JSTOR are updated via the Holdings Feed or autoload process. You can learn more about the OCLC Holdings feed in Content Management: Understanding the JSTOR Holdings Feed.
The MARC records are available to all participating institutions, regardless of whether they are OCLC affiliates. An OCLC Symbol must be on file with JSTOR to start this process.
You can download sample MARC records in .mrc format.
