SAGE Journals – full archive not available

Our access to SAGE Journals content has recently changed.
Until recently, we enjoyed access to the complete backfile for all SAGE journal titles. This has now been restricted to start with access from 1999. We continue to have access to the complete backfile for all titles that are part of the Full-Text Collections on both the SAGE Journals Online and CSA Illumina platforms.

Our CRKN contract with SAGE is currently in negotiation with the publisher and options for access to all SAGE journal content are being explored.
