Project Muse, a non-profit collaboration between libraries and publishers, is an online database of peer-reviewed academic journals and electronic books.[1] As of 2024, Project Muse hosts over 800 journals and 100,000 books in digital humanities and social sciences, sourced from approximately 400 university presses and scholarly societies worldwide.[2][3][4] It is an aggregator of digital versions of academic journals, all of which are free of digital rights management (DRM). It operates as a third-party acquisition service like EBSCO, JSTOR, OverDrive, and ProQuest.[5] Project Muse's online journal collections are available on a subscription basis to academic, public, special, and school libraries.[6]
