“RJP stands to revolutionize this field by giving jazz researchers
a huge common vocabulary of historical material.”

“There is a very cool new resource for jazz researchers … an online trove of digitized jazz (and ragtime) magazines … a breakthrough for jazz research, being able to find hundreds of articles or references … with just a few keystrokes. 
It will greatly advance writing about jazz.”

“I imagine that almost all jazz researchers, regardless of their project,
can find references in RJP that they did not know about.”

“Many of the titles in RIPM Jazz are incredibly rare outside the United States. For those of us based outside of the continental US the content in RIPM Jazz opens up new possibilities of research material.”

“There is a huge project going on … right now which is called RIPM Jazz …
it’s truly unbelievable.”

“Can help reconstruct, quite literally, the career paths followed by musicians.”

“For a jazz researcher, the collection at RIPM is invaluable,
and I don’t use that word lightly. [It] is truly astounding.”

“All the big names [critics]-­-Hentoff, Morgenstern, Feather …
Ulanov, Williams, etc.--are well­ represented.”

“The material in these periodicals is a vital trove of information regarding jazz as it was developing across the 20th and 21st century ... information about jazz that can be difficult to find in other sources.”

“What a tremendous difference this will make for students and scholars of the music! 
I expect this unprecedented resource will boost jazz scholarship enormously.”

“Most, if not all, of this material is otherwise unavailable
electronically and much of it is difficult to access in print.”

“The content of RIPM Jazz is undeniably excellent."

“This is a fantastic resource … RIPM [Jazz Periodicals] is really for institutions,
so if you’re lucky you’ll be affiliated with a college or university that subscribes.
Or you’ll bug them until they do.”

"It is an incredible resource!”

“Like a great jazz record, RIPM Jazz Periodicals has the feel of an instant classic.
I recommend that it be added to the top of want-lists everywhere.”
