@lisalibrarian I guess if all else fails, the unpaywall extension in link resolvers, Libkey etc will catch them at the article level?

@lisalibrarian thanks, I made it 🙂 (if anyone has any more journals not on that list that have successfully S2O'd, please let me know and I'll add them as and when)

Nice list of S20 journals. Wonder if these are getting into link resolvers as open? oad.simmons.edu/oadwiki/Subscr…

Help wanted. A philosopher once said something to this effect: "If I spent all my time reading books by other people, I'd never know more than they did." I thought it was Bentham, but a Bentham expert just told me it wasn't. Any ideas? Would love to get the exact words & source.
