The Herbert D. Katz Center for Advanced Judaic Studies is the home of the Jewish Quarterly Review, part of the Katz Center’s inheritance from Dropsie College and the Annenberg Research Institute. Established by Israel Abrahams and Claude Montefiore in 1889, the Jewish Quarterly Review is the oldest English-language journal in the field of Jewish studies. JQR preserves the attention to textual detail so characteristic of the journal's early years, while encouraging scholarship in a wide range of fields and time periods. In each quarterly issue of JQR, the ancient stands alongside the modern, the historical alongside the literary, the textual alongside the contextual.

Recent issues are available online through Project Muse, and the full 100-plus year archive is digitized at JSTOR.
