Access to the JSTOR archive is provided by many college, university, and other libraries. To find out if your library is a JSTOR participant, use the following link: http://about.jstor.org/participate-jstor/participants.

If your library is not on one of the above lists, look for a nearby library that does have JSTOR access and is open to the public. Members of the MAA have the option of purchasing an individual subscription to JSTOR that gives them access to the archives of The American Mathematical Monthly, Mathematics Magazine, The College Mathematics Journal, and Math Horizons.
