SUBMIT INSTITUTIONAL IP ADDRESS HERE

A subscription to the paper copy issues of year 2005 JDS (volume 88) and online access to every JDS issue available in the electronic archive (January 1990 - current issues) subject to the terms and conditions discussed below and in the IESA/Licensing Agreement. 

 The IESA and licensing agreement details the terms and conditions of electronic access to JDS. It goes into effect once your membership subscription payment is received and online access is provided.

An IP address is the numeric address of a computer connected to the Internet. Every computer using the Internet must have a unique IP address (e.g.,128.92.337.18).  IP addresses are not assigned randomly; a computer's IP address is based on the IP address of the local area network (LAN) through which it is connected.

Place each IP address or IP address range on the lines provided in the online IP address registration form (http://www.adsa.org/jds/ip). If you have more than three lines of addresses to enter, simply submit more than one entry. Be sure to enter your institution/office name in the "name" field, and your ADSA record ID number (the four-digit or five-digit number found on your renewal form and remittance stub above your name) in the appropriate blanks. Users on computers or networks that are not registered will not have access to full-text JDS articles.

 Proxy servers are allowed under our current IESA provided they serve authorized users only. Therefore, a proxy server that enables public access outside of the defined set of authorized users (as defined in the IESA and described below) is prohibited. We ask that you identify any proxy servers when submitting your IP addresses.

For institutional subscribers, any computer located on your authorized network (within your Class B or C  IP range) is eligible to be included in the list of IP addresses with JDS access. Subscribing institutions are expected to make all reasonable efforts to enable access only to authorized users: employees, faculty, staff, and students officially affiliated with the subscribing institution and authorized clients of the subscribing institution's library facilities. These authorized clients may include "walk-in" patrons who are not necessarily affiliated with the subscribing institution but who are using the library facilities.

 May we download articles from the JDS Web site?

Yes. Authorized users can:

1. print one  copy of the output of any search; such copies may be shared with others to the same extent as the print edition, provided such sharing is for the purposes of scholarly communication or educational use and there are no commercial benefits. Authorized users who  print articles must preserve all copyright and other notices on the printed articles.
2. download search results to hard disk, diskette, or other storage media. Authorized users who download articles must preserve all copyright and other notices on the articles.

All subscriptions are for the calendar year. A subscription entitles subscribers to one calendar year's access to the current volume of the electronic journal and the JDS electronic archive.

 Access to the article database is for the length of the agreement period only. There is no access to material after the agreement is terminated. However, you do have the right to download and store articles for future use while your subscription is active.
