Complementary Journal Access. - Lyceum - 04-17-2013

Hi guys just thought I'd pop in briefly to make you all aware of the fact that Cambridge University Press are offering one month's complimentary access to recent volumes of Classics Journals. Cambridge Classics includes:

Anatolian Studies
Annual of the British School at Athens
Archaeological Reports (SPHS & BSA Journal)
Britannia
The Cambridge Classical Journal
The Classical Quarterly
The Classical Review
Greece & Rome
The Journal of Hellenic Studies (SPHS Journal)
The Journal of Roman Studies
Papers of the British School at Rome

So most of the main ones are present and accounted for. Smile

EDIT: Code is CLASSICS13C

EDIT #2: I am bad at this! http://journals.cambridge.org/action/trialRegistration?utm_source=HootSuite&utm_medium=Social&utm_campaign=classics

Nota Bene - read this.


Complementary Journal Access. - Titvs Statilivs Castvs - 04-19-2013

Can you download them or only read them online?


Complementary Journal Access. - Vindex - 04-19-2013

Some have free downloads, some you have to pay for. I haven't noticed any which are on line only, but I have only trawled through about 10%!!


Complementary Journal Access. - Vindex - 04-21-2013

...but watch out for the VAT! Ouch £6 on a £30 article... :o Confusedad:

I'm sure we discussed this topic before but I failed to find it. Sad Therefore I revived this one, because of the anouncement of Michael Taylor that his article was available online:

Quote:The paper is now available on my academia page.
https://www.academia.edu/1602947/Roman_Infantry_Tactics_in_the_Mid-Republic_A_Reassessment
No downloadable PDF, but click the "ingentraconnect" link. Let me know if it does not work.

I think it's a good thing that modern article are more and more available onlineToo bad it costs us $33 to read it. Which i think is a pretty hefty price for 21 pages (no doubt of good quality), when you think of the fact that the publication was already paid for once.

I applaud the rising availability of books and articles on the internet. However, most of the free information consists of outdated articles and even older books, while up to date information is hidden away behind paysites. The effect of this development is already visible. Long-since disproven theories are again repeated in open discussion, due to the availablity of the information to those who seek it. Those who need to be informed are unable to get the information they need (at least not without paying relatively large sums of money).

Robert fully agree
plus a lot of this I am paying through my taxes being an European citizen

as long as the writer is writing an article, book or whatever and he is paid by an European state and he is doing this in his work time everything should be freely accessible online, if you want a book extra costs should be charged but I consider I already paid for the info

I know is not so easy, and I know a lot of you will disagree with me and come with other opinions but I DO NOT own any rights for my research but the one who are paying for this


Complementary Journal Access. - Lyceum - 02-21-2015
