Feb 10, 2021 at 15:21 comment added Jon Custer @Peter - well, if nobody really reads it, perhaps the effort to digitize isn't worth it? But it used to be that if it wasn't in the basement stacks you'd ask a librarian and wait weeks to months for a badly-Xerox'd copy to show up. That option still exists, although the copy is digital (often badly-scanned) now. (Yes, not online does not mean not available through my institution.)
Feb 10, 2021 at 15:12 comment added Some Student It is available online because I googled it and found it. Didn't see the text but the search engine found it therefore it must be digitized. The problem is that greedy institutions block access even to content that noone ever reads. Very annoying problem, especially with older publications.
Feb 10, 2021 at 15:04 comment added Jon Custer @Peter - well, either it is not in digital form (yet?), or it isn't part of my institutions subscription since we don't do pipelines. Frankly it is still a bit weird that people expect everything to be available on the web, but that is mostly showing my age and experience looking through dusty tombs in the basements of libraries...
