African e-Journals Project (original) (raw)

The African e-Journals Project makes journals published in Africa and about Africa more available to scholars worldwide.

The project offers two major resources. First, a directory of journals about Africa provides information about where to find tables of contents and abstracts, full text of articles online, and journal webpages, where they are available.

Second, a full-text archive is provided of back issues of 11 scholarly journals published in Africa in the social sciences and humanities.

Third, the links page offers information about other important websites that are increasing the accessibility of Africa journals as well as digital libraries about Africa of interest to scholars.

The African e-Journals Project is a collaborative effort of Michigan State University with the Association of African Universities and the African Studies Association . The project was begun by the MSU African Studies Center and the MSU Libraries in cooperation with MATRIX: The Center for Humane Arts, Letters, and Social Studies Online. The U.S. Department of Education�s Title VI program on Technological Innovation and Cooperation for Foreign Information Access (TICFIA) provided funding for the project from 1999 to 2004.
