abstract = "RIPM Jazz Periodicals, a collaborative effort between the Institute of Jazz Studies (IJS) at Rutgers University and RIPM Partner and Participating Libraries, offers a unique collection of historical primary source jazz periodicals. With a focus on rare and hard-to-find content, the
database has grown from 105 to 138 titles, spanning 350,000 citation records and 204,000 full-text pages. The products strength lies in exclusive content and the readability and quality of its scans. However, user experience challenges arise from the complexity of search functions.
Despite minor drawbacks, continuous updates and plans for additional content highlight the products commitment to improvement. While there are no direct competitors, related products in the RIPM series cover different historical periods and geographic regions.",
