@Eddie891: In your Gbooks link, I can access all except 234, 235 and 238. By the way, the chapter ends on 239, not 240. If you can't access specific pages, let me know and I can send the ones I do have access to apart from those 3. --MrLinkinPark333 (talk) 16:44, 1 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

MrLinkinPark333, That's curious-- My gbooks preview ends at page 77! Eddie891 ^Talk _Work 16:47, 1 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Eddie891: Hmm. It could be either daily page limit and/or geographic page limit. Maybe try opening in another browser? --MrLinkinPark333 (talk) 16:49, 1 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

MrLinkinPark333, Thanks. Through google.com, I get that "pages 77 to end are not included in this preview". if I go through google.ca, I can see the pages I want, I can see the pages where they should be but they have "you have either reached a page that is unavailable for viewing or reached your viewing limit for this book." Thoughts? Eddie891 ^Talk _Work 17:31, 1 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Eddie891 It's most likely a daily page limit. If you check again another day, you might be able to get more pages then you did before (depending on how many pages you looked already). Sometimes I can't access a page then might be able to - depends if it's part of the preview. --MrLinkinPark333 (talk) 17:41, 1 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hello everyone. I would greatly appreciate Chapter 11 ("Freshly Squeezed: 1990—94", pp. 165–177) from the following book. I will be using it to revise the Veronica Clare article for a FAC.

• Bang, Derrick (2020). Crime and Spy Jazz on Screen Since 1971: A History and Discography. McFarland & Company. ISBN 978-1-4766-3989-5.

I originally could access the parts of the book I need through Google Books Preview, but for whatever reason, it is not inaccessible to me.

@Aoba47: I've experienced this before myself. I suspect that Google Books may move a book's preview window from time to time. I've learnt that if I can see pages in a preview, save them before the window shifts. Regarding the pages you want (165–177), I can see all of them except pages 167, 175 and 177. I'm not sure how much you can see. —Bruce1ee^talk 07:59, 7 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Probably a hopeless case, but has someone access to this publication? For User:Jo-Jo Eumerus/Tocorpuri

Thanks, Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk) 20:54, 15 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Jo-Jo Eumerus, try contacting the author: his gmail can be found by clicking on his bolded name here. —Usernameunique (talk) 23:31, 13 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

By the way, Jo-Jo Eumerus, a response to your comment regarding contacting authors, which was archived before I had a chance to respond. You said "Sorry, but in light of bad experiences I am extremely reluctant at contacting people off-Wikipediaby email." I'm not sure what bad experiences you are, or could be, referring to; the worst that can happen by emailing an author and requesting an article is that they respond by saying "no." In fact, the very first of the "Tips for finding a source yourself" at the top of this page is to "Send a request to the author(s) of research papers for a copy of their paper by email."

There are many reasons for authors to oblige, such as the desire to see their research widely distributed, professional pride, and common courtesy. It is frequently also the least indulgent request, because other means—asking people to track down and download or scan a work, or requesting an institution obtain it via ILL—tend to take more time and money than reaching out to someone who already has it. Given the nature of your requests, many of which are obscure, held by few institutions, and difficult to obtain—a prime example being this article, which you term "Probably a hopeless case"—it almost behooves you to take the step of reaching out to those most likely to have the articles—that is, the authors themselves. --Usernameunique (talk) 02:03, 14 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

If the discomfort of sending strangers emails is what's making you hesitant, don't worry—I would just send a brief form email (similar to how you lead off most of your requests here with "Greetings, has someone..."), saying that you came across a reference to their article, think it might be useful for a Wikipedia article you're working on, and wonder if they have a copy readily available. --Usernameunique (talk) 14:46, 14 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• "A look ahead to next week's TV". Aberdeen Evening Express. 31 May 1975. (not sure on page number)

It's held at a decent number of libraries[7] but most of the book is just a translation of the original documents, according to the TOC. (t · c) buidhe 06:19, 15 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Jenhawk777: The book is available in my library. I might help you if you could specify the page range. See Gbooks, and try to research through snippet view. --Gazal world (talk) 18:33, 15 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

buidhe That makes sense actually. It was used as a reference for which of the Acts was likely to be genuinely historical and which weren't. That's why I thought I should check it for myself. Gazal world I have no way of knowing what might be most relevant to this question. Perhaps of there is an intro or a conclusion section??? Google books found it finally but won't even allow a snippet view. It says this work is historically valuable bu then it won't let you see it! Ahrrr!! Any help - any pages - you can give will be genuinely appreciated. Jenhawk777 (talk) 19:24, 15 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Jenhawk777: There is a search button below the Gbook. Enter any key-word useful to you and you would be able to see that on which pages it appear. This will help you to request specific pages. --Gazal world (talk) 19:30, 15 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Gazal world So if I type in Introduction it shows me a picture of that word and that's it. It doesn't give me access to the introduction. I give up. I don't think there is any way to access this 2-volume book no matter how "historically important" it supposedly is. Thank you for your efforts anyway. Jenhawk777 (talk) 20:12, 15 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Jenhawk777: What I am trying to tell you is: Use the search button, enter useful key-words (person name or anything else you are searching for) and search, check snippet view and page numbers. And tell me here those page numbers, I will get them scanned from my library. --Gazal world (talk) 20:18, 15 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Gazal world Okay! They won't show me anything but maybe you can! Awesome! Let's try pages LI and LIV, then pages LX to LXII. I'm grateful for your willingness to go above and beyond like this. Pretty cool.

I also found a review of the book that might help. Do I need to open another request for that? Jenhawk777 (talk) 20:52, 15 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Jenhawk777, no, you can just post it as part of this request if you prefer. (t · c) buidhe 23:49, 15 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Awesome! Thank you buidhe. The book review is written by E. Mary Smallwood; the title is H. Musurillo, The Acts of the Christian Martyrs. (Oxford Early Christian Texts.) Oxford: The Clarendon Press, 1972. Pp. lxxiii + 379. Published online by Cambridge University Press: 24 September 2012; from the Journal of Roman studies, volume 63; I found it at [[8]]. Thank you again, I appreciate it! Jenhawk777 (talk) 02:52, 16 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Jenhawk777, Sent (t · c) buidhe 02:56, 16 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you buidhe. Got it! If it's okay, I won't put resolved here yet since Gazal world also said he would scan those pages for me. I found another review as well, and can see it, and hopefully the two together and the pages Gazal can send will be sufficient. Thanx again. Jenhawk777 (talk) 03:00, 16 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

buidhe I got the notification that you sent an email but I have nothing from you. Can you resend? Jenhawk777 (talk) 03:12, 16 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Jenhawk777, If you didn't get the email I believe you can access the review using JSTOR here : https://www.jstor.org/stable/299228 (t · c) buidhe 03:17, 16 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you! I was able to find it at JSTOR through My Library and now have a PDF! Thank you! thank you! Jenhawk777 (talk) 04:27, 16 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Gazal world Have you been able to scan those pages? Should I close this out? Jenhawk777 (talk) 16:45, 16 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Jenhawk777: Sorry. I was busy in my college works. I have not requested the page scan yet. I will request it tonight. If you want more pages from the book, let me know. Because after this request, I would not be able to request this book again. --Gazal world (talk) 16:55, 16 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Gazal world No apology necesssary - really - you are the one doing me the favor, and I am just grateful. Period. The introduction to the book is 60 pages long. I will be glad for any and all of it that you can scan and send. Since it is probable you won't be able to send all of it, perhaps the last 5-10 pages or so will contain conclusions? I have no way of knowing. I'm just guessing. It could be that the first 5-10 pages tell what he is going to say and that would provide a kind of summary instead. If you have the book, perhaps you could take a look and see if there is anywhere he summarizes or forecasts or offers any kind of an overview? You know how authors often write that "In chapter 6 I will discuss so and so". That would be helpful. This is asking a lot, I know, so anything you send will be received with gratitude no matter what. Thank you again, and I mean that sincerely. Later!

Gazal world It's really late here and I am going to bed. Maybe tomorrow. Jenhawk777 (talk) 04:01, 17 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• Jenhawk777, i sent you wikimail. Please, check it. --Jim Hokins (talk) 11:42, 17 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• @Jim Hokins: Didn't you notice that I am working on this request. I had requested the pages in my library. I have to pay for it. Wasted my money. --Gazal world (talk) 17:04, 17 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Gazal world, sorry, man. --Jim Hokins (talk) 18:41, 17 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Gazal world I am sorry too, but in all fairness, these things don't often take days, so I am sure Jim Hokins just thought he was helping close out a request that had remained open too long. At any rate, I am deeply grateful to both of you. The help you provide here is completely awesome. A heartfelt thank you – again and again! {{Resolved}} Jenhawk777 (talk) 20:55, 17 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

It is section T of page 13 if that matters. It's for The Empire Strikes Back. I have tried Newspapers.com and some of the other Library sections but no luck. Thanks. Darkwarriorblake / SEXY ACTION TALK PAGE! 13:30, 17 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Darkwarriorblake: This article is available at ProQuest here in The Wikipedia Library Bundle. You should have access to it. —Bruce1ee^talk 13:34, 17 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks Bruce, I did check Proquest as that and Ebsco seem to be the most useful ones. I must not have quite mastered the best way to search as it didn't bring up NYTimes at all for me. Thank you. Darkwarriorblake / SEXY ACTION TALK PAGE! 13:56, 17 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
