For example, the Antenna and Propagation IEEE Transactions for a year

Or you can go to the library and read (and copy) them for free. *


The local Santa Cruz libraries are in serious financial trouble. *The
main library has severely limited hours, while the satellite branches
are only open two to five days per week.

None of the local libraries stock IEEE AP-S Transactions.


None of the public libraries in Illinois stock them either





Oh, and yes, If you have access to an engineering library on campus.


I joined the UCSC "Friends of the Library" association in order to
obtain an account. *$35 to $60/year. *


Now that is interesting!
Visitors can only get on line if the University have them on their
list as being invited
Time period 45 days. I understand that you can't get copies because of
copywrite laws and oversite by the societies so I assume they get
freebees.
There is some pressure on lab schools to place results on the web
since it is public money. The Governor signed a bill a little while
ago on transparency as to where the money goes
But then nobody actually follow all the laws in Chicago and down
state.

Most IEEE Transactions are available online from off campus.

Most colleges have similar arrangements. *I would also join my alumni
association (Cal Poly, Pomona), which offers similar privileges, but
find the local college more convenient. *However, there's a catch.
Most of the online IEEE AP-S Transactions are about a year or more
behind. *The various libraries seem to prefer annual subscriptions,
which means most recent issues are often unavailable. *If that
happens, I either pay the price of the download (only if desperate),
or borrow an issue from a friend with a subscription.

Oh, and yes, if they let you back on campus..... *Sorry, some (Art)
have spit on too many professors.


Most of the stuff is available online. *No need to visit the campus.
However, when I do, the real problem is parking. * There isn't much
available. *Going to the UCSC library is a major expedition for me.

I suspect that Art will be ok at a library, as long as he doesn't
bring his soap box and attract attention by loudly denouncing the
content of the physics, antenna design, or grammar books.
