Electronic Journals

Starting with their 2004 volumes, all Equinox journals are being made available online as well as in the print edition. All institutions with a paid, standard institutional subscription for 2004 are now eligible to Standard Access to the online version via Extenza e-Publishing Services and other third party ‘infomediary’ partner sites, such as SwetsWise (see below). To avoid confusion, please note the start issues for each journal. Online access continues as long as a library continues a subscription.

Information for Librarians for 2004

STANDARD ACCESS includes:

• Access to PDF articles from the current volume (and from next year, to the current and previous volume)
  
• IP and/or remote user access authentication
  In addition, we are participating in the CrossRef Initiative. This will assist readers to find related research through reference linking by clicking on any ‘CrossRef’ links that appear in the references of Equinox articles. (The click takes the reader to cited articles in other journals.)

All institutions are required to abide by the Terms and Conditions outlined in our Site License Agreement (basic access). Please print out two copies of this, sign and return one to: Equinox Publishing Ltd., Unit 6, The Village, 101 Amies Street, London SW11 2JW or fax: +44 020 7350 2836.

Gaining Access

Access to online journals will be controlled via a library’s approved IP address ranges that Equinox will have provided to Extenza.. This will allow authorized users at subscribing institutions to enter the site and view content without the need for a password. Alternatively, the Extenza system will recognize users if they have already logged in via Athens, or users may login at the Extenza site by using an institution’s Athens userid and password.

Please read the library information sheet and complete the registration form.

Users will be automatically directed to the Extenza site if they connect via one of our infomediary partner sites. Please note, delays may occur in the loading of updated header information by the infomediaries and aggregators; in such cases, users will still be able to access subscriptions by visiting the Extenza site directly.

Future Developments

We expect to make additional functionality available over the next year for libraries (known as Library Super Users) such as access on usage and the possibility to set up additional users via the Extenza system.

We are also developing a Consortia policy for 2005/6 and we may proceed to make selected back issues available online over the next few years.

Infomediaries/Third Party Service Providers

Electronic access will be available through third party service providers used by most libraries worldwide, including EBSCO Electronic Journals Service, Maruzen, OCLC Electronic Collections, SwetsWise and others.

Information for Personal Subscribers and Society Members

From 2005 we will offer online options to individuals and members of designated scholarly societies. Please see individual journal webpages for further details over the coming months.
