Hi Paul-

I don't know about commercial databases, but have you thought about enrolling at a  local community college to get access to the online literature. The small enrollment fee for one course would probably be less expensive than a commercial database.

Hi
 
I've raised this issue in the past but have still not been able to resolve it and I'm hoping someone out there can help.  I'm working from home and currently unaffiliated with a university.  I was granted an extension by UCLA to continue using my database password to do research, but this extension is expiring at the end of the year and as I'm no longer at UCLA I can't renew it.  I've been associated with UCLA for my entire research career and have no idea how unaffiliated researchers who do not live near a good university library (or are homebound for other reasons, such as disability) do their research--that is, gain access to full-texts of online research articles from professional journals.
 
Are there commercially-run databases out there which you can subscribe to and will license articles to you?  I would be most grateful for any help anyone out there can offer.
