4. Email the Researcher
If you're unable to find an article, look up its author and email them.
You can easily find their emails on their institution's website. Tell them you'd like a copy of their article and they'll send it to you.
If you email me, I will send you a copy of my paper and a $100 bribe for citing my article 😉
