The new version of JSTOR requires users to register a username and password in order to email results to themselves. Saving via downloading to a flash drive or a hard drive seems to the easiest way to work with content in JSTOR.

To email results in JSTOR, the user needs to login, checkoff results, click on the link for saved citations (upper right of page below your login identity), then select the citations again and click on “export.” Then, finally, one can email citations with links. Off-campus users will have to authenticate into JSTOR to access the articles.

Sage also requires a little learning curve. You don’t need to create a username/password to work with results. After checking off the results you want, the critical step is to click on the button “Add to My Marked Citations.” If you don’t click that button, your results are not saved even if you check off the box next to the article. The final step is to select either *View/Edit My Marked Citations or * Email/Download/Save/Print My Marked Citations. The rest is fairly straightforward. As with JSTOR, full text can’t be emailed—only citations with links.
