I want to download an article from JSTOR without paying $34. It’s from 1958. That’s outrageous.

Aside from wanting just text on my screen, without all the visual clutter, I want to be able to highlight & look up or translate. They’ve messed click-&-drag copying. If you try to copy a block of text, you don’t get the 1st and last few characters from each line. If you highlight a word or 2 to look up or translate, you don’t get all the characters you highlighted but you do get some you didn’t want. Also, I like being able to highlight a PDF I own.

Didn’t JSTOR used to give a couple of freebies/month or something like that?

Thanks.

    Or your local library. They often have access, or can get it for you.
