The Lovecraft Annual is now on JSTOR, as the full run. Reviews are fully separated and itemised by book title, as are the Briefly Noted paragraphs. JSTOR is a sort of ‘all you can eat buffet’ of a list of selected journals, which most academic libraries give their students and full-time staff free access to. Inclusion is a mark of high quality, and should help boost citations for those for whom such things matter. Those who have been quietly scourged in the book reviews may not be quite so happy.

As for me, I’m only two issues away from having a complete set in paper, needing only 2008 and 2010.

Update: I just remembered that JSTOR do offer limited access to off-site independent researchers. It seems this scheme is still in operation, though when last heard of it was limited to selected journal titles only.
