MUSE has been an integral part of the scholarly communications ecosystem for 25 years, providing libraries with affordable access to vetted, essential scholarship from our community of respected not-for-profit publishers. In an era of continuous change, our mission - the sustainable dissemination of trusted content - remains constant. By distributing the significant majority of our revenue from library purchases directly back to our university-based publishers, we return a great deal of value to the system of scholarship, rather than extracting it. We invest in maintaining a platform that provides for crucial needs of discoverability and accessibility, complies with major information standards, and offers library-friendly and user-friendly terms.

MUSE hosts several fully open access journals and many thousand open access books from a wide variety of respected university presses and not-for-profit scholarly publishers. Content from our open access resources may be searched or browsed alongside content owned by libraries, and free tools are offered to assist with discovery.
