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. http://giving.ucsc.edu/giving_detail.php?web_id=631 Most IEEE Transactions are available online from off campus. http://library.ucsc.edu/gateways/gateways-for-visitors-and-neighbors 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. -- Jeff Liebermann * * 150 Felker St #D * *http://www.LearnByDestroying.com Santa Cruz CA 95060http://802.11junk.com Skype: JeffLiebermann * * AE6KS * *831-336-2558 |
