The Artstor website was retired on August 1, 2024. To ensure a seamless transition to JSTOR, we copied the contents of all Artstor users’ image groups into folders in their JSTOR Workspace in February and July of 2024.
On April 15, 2024, we brought your Personal Collections to JSTOR too. If you previously uploaded images to a Personal Collection on Artstor, you can now find those images under the Uploaded items tab in your JSTOR Workspace.
In this new space, you can upload new images, organize your uploaded items with folders in your Workspace, and share those folders with members of your institution. You can use your uploaded items with all of the tools available in Workspace such as exporting to PDF, PowerPoint, or ZIP as well as presenting and comparing in full screen.
See Workspace: Uploading Items for more.
