As chronicled in your researcher's journal as I researched my history of early lifestyles in South Asia...
My work for some years has been toward being ready for "a better
library." I assumed I'd have a lot of choice, and was just checking for a
city I'll be visiting later this year that is reputed to have a
university with a fabulous department and library specializing in my
subject, for me to get a head start on some of that research. Well, I
just checked on the worldcat site for specific sources I had on my long
list, and found that even well-respected journals for some of my area
are only available in Europe, especially Germany. Mmm, German might be
more necessary than I thought! No wonder no one ever wrote what I'm
writing; not only does it take years to go through (very disturbing)
material, but few copies of such material seem to be extant!
