I want to be able to download and/or access the resource The International Encyclopedia of Media Literacy https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/book/10.1002/9781118978238.

I can’t seem to find a pdf version anywhere and was hoping to read it via an ‘institution’ that provides access.

Is it possible to access a university library that provides access (so to speak) to books otherwise only available via subscription?

Alternatively, does anyone know where hard to find books like these might be available?

thanks

In the US, many public universities allow access to the public, including use of computer terminals that will allow access to paid databases. In many cases, you could bring in a usb stick and save copies of articles downloaded from such databases, or at worst you could pay a small fee to print some stuff out. AFAIK, that kind of access varies state by state though, so you need to call university libraries near you to find out.
