[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.)
