<p class="preview">A list of papers/books/materials I have failed to obtain, and financial bounties for anyone who can provide copies to me or the Internet.</p>
<div class="prose">
<p>Sometimes in research, despite my best search techniques, I am unable to get a digital copy of a paper or book to upload to Libgen. This page lists my failures to date, and offers bounties for anyone who can get me a digital copy of them (often possible via a university ILL department, which are no longer accessible to me).
Internet Archive scans are not accepted due to low quality, unless there are extenuating circumstances.
Standard bounties: $10 for papers/theses/chapters & $20 for books/videos/miscellaneous
Payment methods: PayPal or Amazon gift cards preferred; other methods possible but may require more work
Additional costs: I may pay bounty+costs if not unreasonable or you contact me in advance with the total
To claim: Contact me with the copy. Payments are first-come-first served unless you contact me in advance so I can remove it from the list & avoid unnecessary duplication.</p>
<p>The following is a demo of how this file is expcted to look, do not contact me with any of the entries below. You will know this file is active
when this notice has been removed.</p>
