Artstor Transition to JSTOR

• Artstor is phasing out its stand-alone interface, though it will remain operational through August 1, 2024. We recommend using Artstor on JSTOR. See The Artstor experience on JSTOR for more information.
• While we recommend using Artstor on JSTOR, you may access the Artstor classic interface here or, if you have an existing personal account, you may log in directly at https://library.artstor.org. The classic Artstor interface will be available through July 31, 2024.

Copy your Artstor saved images (groups) to Artstor on JSTOR

• If you have a personal Arstor account, you may wish to copy your saved images onto JSTOR. To do so, go to https://www.jstor.org/copygroups/, click "Get Started", and follow the instructions.
• Note: After you move your Artstor images to JSTOR, your Artstor account on the JSTOR and the stand-alone Artstor interface will not synch automatically. You can repeat the “copy groups” process though.

Is your Artstor account associated with your @calu.edu email (or another email you wish to switch)? If so, send an email to support@artstor.org with the following text:
