I’m pleased to announce that the UL has purchased two 2026 publisher collections, hosted on JSTOR: Cornell University Press and State University of New York (SUNY) Press. We know these publishers to be very popular with Cambridge readers–in the 2024-25 academic year, there were 57 Cornell and 79 SUNY titles triggered for purchase by Cambridge users on the UL’s Ebook Central and JSTOR DDA schemes–and with the purchase of these two collections, we will have permanent, DRM-free access to all ebooks (roughly 150 titles in each case) published by both presses during 2026. In addition, we will have access for twelve months to the backlist for both publishers (over 7,000 ebooks across the two) on JSTOR. There won’t be records for all of these books in iDiscover until January, but our access has been switched on, and users can reach the content by going direct to JSTOR.
Records for the 2026 titles will be added as they are released throughout the year. A selection of 2025 titles which we already own in perpetuity via the DDA schemes can be seen below (click here to skip to a list of iDiscover links). If you have any questions about Duke ebooks, please do get in touch with the English Collections team (engcc@lib.cam.ac.uk).
