Annette,
Thanks for the tips. Unfortunately, we don't have psyarticles. And
although we have an e-reserve system, we are apparently not permitted to
have more than a single article from a journal issue on e-reserve. The
articles I chose were from several series of articles within individual
issues, and so would violate that restriction. I could put articles on
reserve for students to copy, and that may be what I resort to, but that
sure is silly. Related to this, does anyone know whether I can put articles
on reserve in my office for students to come and copy. Or alternatively,
can I make several copies of individual articles for my own use, and then
loan them out to students who happen to be interested in reading them?
