Abandoned AmericaThe fun thing about doing historical research as an individual unconnected with academia is the absolute constellation of different, ridiculously expensive paywalls you run into trying to get any info whatsoever
N.@AbandonedAmerica Yeah. I hate it. I love researching things for the sake of knowledge and learning, but so much is inaccessible to me because I'm not an academic. I feel you.
@curiousmold thanks! Judging from the responses here it's not great for academics either. Just an all around lousy and frustrating system
@AbandonedAmerica I'm not sure where you're located, but I wonder if local libraries might be able to help.
