The Oxford Journals Collection features over 260 of the worlds most prestigious and authoritative journals representing the forefront of academic research and providing an invaluable resource for professionals, libraries and their users.

Over two-thirds of Oxford Journals content has been published in cooperation with partner societies that span a wide range of disciplines and geographical locations.

The partnerships result in journals that highlight the most relevant cutting edge research in their respective fields.

An integral part of our scholarly mission is to publish journals of the highest quality, as demonstrated by the impact factor rankings. According to the 2012 Journal Citation Reports, over a quarter of Oxford Journals titles are in the top 10% and half in the top 25% of their subject category.

Individual libraries and consortia can subscribe to the entire Journals collection, a subject package, or a customized selection tailored to meet their needs, including access to content dating back to 1996. Please check with your librarian for the list of titles available within your library.

Content published from 1849 to 1995 is included in The Archive, in more than 4 million pages, back to Volume 1 Issue 1 for each title included. This perfectly complements the Oxford Journals Collection subscription.
