Hypermedia Online Publishing: the Transformation of the Scholarly Journal

8.6.1 Overview

Project Muse is an initiative of the Johns Hopkins University (JHU) Press and the Milton S. Eisenhower Library at JHU. It provides worldwide networked access to the full-text of over 40 of the Press's electronic journals. Project Muse was chosen as it is one of the very first Web-based electronic journal projects, and has a predominantly humanities coverage in contrast to Highwire. The Project Muse homepage is available online at <http://muse.jhu.edu/muse.html> .

Susan Lewis, now at Jossey-Bass Publishing, but who was Online Projects Director for Johns Hopkins Press when Project MUSE was starting;
