Subject:Re: Research access recommendations

Hi Katie, Great ideas here. I'd also suggest joining https://www.researchgate.net/ - a free "Facebook for academics"-type place where many of us keep our articles privately archived. Scholars are generally thrilled to provide copies of articles that folks can't access through other sources, and can do so through private communication without violating copyright. Even at a university, there are articles I don't have access to. Liz Elizabeth M.
