zlib_text: SAGE was founded in 1965 by Sara Miller McCune to support 
  the dissemination of usable knowledge by publishing innovative 
  and high-quality research and teaching content. Today, we 
  publish over 900 journals, including those of more than 400 
  learned societies, more than 800 new books per year, and a 
  growing range of library products including archives, data, case 
  studies, reports, and video. SAGE remains majority-owned by 
  our founder, and after Sara’s lifetime will become owned by 
  a charitable trust that secures our continued independence.
