    I cannot tell you how many times I have hit the "Subscription Required" wall while researching for my PhD. One bad thing about (IMO) underfunded "free" college education is that the fringe benefits students take for granted in America, like access to JSTOR and the OED, are simply not available. Hopefully this little work-around will help me and hopefully other readers of this blog.

    The Google Operating System blog points out that Google's integration of Scholar results means that students and researchers have to settle for "subscription required" firewalls when trying to pull up a paper. Hit the "All (x) versions" link, and you'll often find a readable copy on Google's servers.

    One of my most-used techniques when I wrote my thesis. These "subscription required" sites are annoying and counterproductive. Journals are supposed to disseminate data, instead they restrict access and deny it to those who need it most (students).

    @eilu: I think the reason for it is to try and stop (or at least hinder) plagiarism, but of course google are going to want subscriptions anyway
