Upcoming Journals
Each year Project MUSE adds a carefully-selected group of high quality journals to our online collections. For information on how journals are chosen, please see the overview of our collection development policy. All new journals are included in the MUSE Premium Collection, and titles are selectively added to other collections. For a variety of reasons, some titles may cease contributing new content to MUSE; all issues currently online do remain available to subscribing libraries.

MUSE Collection Updates
The Project MUSE Basic Undergraduate Collection is the smallest interdisciplinary subset of the Premium Collection and is designed for four and two year colleges and libraries outside the U.S. Effective with the 2008 subscription year, the collection will have a new name, Basic College Collection, which more aptly describes the audience and market for which it is intended. The focus of this collection is not changing.
The MUSE Arts and Humanities Collection and Social Sciences Collection have been reconfigured to sharpen the focus of the collections and better align them with the research needs of subscribing institutions. Complete details on the revised Humanities Collection and Social Sciences Collection are available on http://muse.jhu.edu/about/subscriptions/subscriptions_2008.html.
