IcePrincessKRS Posted September 5, 2010 Share Posted September 5, 2010 [quote name='HisChildForever' timestamp='1283722986' post='2168457'] Thanks for looking! (For a free trial, you have to enter credit card information? LOL.) [/quote] So they can charge you when you forget to cancel the free trial. Sneaky twits.

Nihil Obstat Posted September 5, 2010 Share Posted September 5, 2010 They probably do an automatic subscription when the trial is over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IcePrincessKRS Posted September 5, 2010 Share Posted September 5, 2010 That's about all the luck I'm having. Almost every other result on the search is some syllabus or other, or a link to buy their books. It looks like copyrights prevent more than a couple pages from being posted. I'll look a little more later if I get a chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mommas_boy Posted September 6, 2010 Share Posted September 6, 2010 [quote name='HisChildForever' timestamp='1283721505' post='2168418'] Yes, I am looking through all articles posted by the faculty of the Sociology department via the online catalog and I got nothing. [/quote] One thing that I used to do is use Google Scholar to search for a scholarly article. Google Scholar, nine times out of ten, would not have the full text, but it would give me the bibliographical info as well as an abstract. With that, I would then locate the same article in the university database. I just found Google's search engine to be more robust, and provide a better clearinghouse than the search engine for the database. When I combined Google Scholar for location and the database for the full text, that was an excellent pair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luigi Posted September 6, 2010 Share Posted September 6, 2010 Search through Ebsco Host or another academic databases. Your college's library webpage probably has access to those sorts of academic databases. Once you get into Ebsco Host or something similar, you may have to narrow down your search by choosing specificaly Sociology databases. It's a complicated pain in the patooty sometimes, but you can probably trace it through the library databases. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HisChildForever Posted September 6, 2010 Author Share Posted September 6, 2010 Thanks everyone. I might just have to read a summary of each article and wing it. Ice, the link is great - I am surprised this is a BOOK lol, I have no clue what excerpt we are supposed to read, but ah well. Oh hold on, I am now scrolling through the contents, and in Part III there is a chapter called "From a Native Daughter". Duh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
