This is a Wikipedia user page. This is not an encyclopedia article or the talk page for an encyclopedia article. |
I can access a very vast list of resources, and I gladly share them with the Wikipedia community, both through my own contributions and by sharing copies of resources by request.
Request process
editPlease reach out if you're looking for a resource I might be able to access. I promise, I'd love to help!
To smooth out this process, here are a few things you'll need:
- The most information about the source you can provide, typically in the form of a full citation
- A specific chapter/section you'd like (I won't provide full books or similar documents for copyright reasons.)
- The name of the article(s) you're working on (I'll generally only share resources for the purpose of contributing to Wikipedia.)
- A valid email address attached to your account (check or update) so I can share your file
