Academic journals provide information such as titles, keywords, and abstracts of articles that may be useful for tracking trends in fields over time or investigating what topics or clusters of research exist in a field. Some, but not all, publishers also allow researchers to access the full text of articles for text analysis, subject to certain limits and restrictions. Academic citation data is often used in network analyses.
JSTOR makes available for text mining its numerous peer-reviewed journals covering most academic disciplines.
