JSTOR Is Now Available in 1,000 Prisons, Thanks to the Work of Stacy Burnett ’20 MBA ’23
JSTOR, the online resource that gives access to more than 12 million journal articles, books, images, and primary sources, is now available in 1,000 prisons spread across four continents. Led by Stacy Burnett ’20 MBA ’23, alumna of the Bard MBA in Sustainability Program and the Bard Prison Initiative, the JSTOR Access in Prison Initiative now connects more than 500,000 incarcerated people to the digital equivalent of a college library. “Creating more equitable learning environments inside prisons is the best way to pay forward my own prison-based education,” Burnett said. “We have proven that through understanding, collaboration, and creativity, we can create workable solutions that deliver meaningful digital equity and information literacy for incarcerated people.”
