[MR] JSTOR Access

If you are a college graduate, you might look at seeing if you have access 
to JSTOR via your alumni association or your library, if your college gives 
library access to alums.

I had been mumbling about my lack of JSTOR access since I kept coming across 
nifty articles in my research and the local collegiate libraries in the 
Charleston, South Carolina, area really do not offer the kind of research 
facilities I need for either my historical or linguistic research (or 
documenting names for the Golden Dolphin office!!!).  Then I discovered that 
the Columbia University Alumni Association had gotten a subscription so I 
now have full JSTOR access through them.  (To some other stuff as well, but 
JSTOR is the one most useful for classicists and medievalists.)
