Need a microfilm from St Pancras, London (British Library)

I need a London resident willing to go to the British Library at St Pancras and scan the microfilm of a 1965 Evening Standard article.

(The article is not available on Newspapers.com; see my previous WP:RX request here [1].)

Relevant details:

  • Evening Standard
  • Title appears to be: "IT'S THE GHOST OF LILLIE LANGTRY - AS QUEER THINGS HAPPEN IN HER OLD HOME".
  • Date of the article is April 2, 1965.
  • One exact quote I've seen attributed several times to it is "Langtry's ghost appeared one day".

I need a copy of the article in full (it has been excerpted in at least one book and a few news articles), which is why I need the microfilm. I also need the page number.

Article being improved: Lillie Langtry

My email address is softlavenderwiki@gmail.com

@Luwanglinux: Why that page range? The matches are on pp. 45 and 46, and carefully searching Google Books ([2], [3]) and elsewhere ([4]) shows that the containing chapter is "Origin, Growth and Fall of the Moirang Principality in South Manipur Valley" by L. Basanti Devi on pp. 45-51. Should I request an interlibrary loan for this chapter, instead?

Oh thank you, that’s more than I found. But I think that may just be a preview with more behind a paywall—I’m specifically looking to check language in our entry cited to page 10 of the BMJ reference (here: Myalgic_encephalomyelitis/chronic_fatigue_syndrome#Severity) so I think there must be a much longer version.

  • Friedman, Norman (1988). British Carrier Aviation: The Evolution of the Ships and Their Aircraft. Annapolis, Maryland: Naval Institute Press. ISBN 0-87021-054-8.

For HMS Albion (R07). Ideally, the whole chapter for the Hermes/Centaur class carriers (to cross reference with my sources). If that is not possible, pages 262 and 267 would be fine.

Thanks! SpanCan (talk) 04:12, 1 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@SpanCan:
My university doesn't have this, but another public university in the same state does, so I should be able to get this easily through the consortium, whether as a scan of some pages or the full book in print.
From careful searching of Google Books, it looks like those pages are contained in chapter 12 "The Last Carriers" (pp. 245-267), so I've requested a scan of that chapter. If you contact me via Special:EmailUser, I'll send you the PDF once I receive it.
FYI, according to HathiTrust, "Hermes" is mentioned on 100 pages throughout the book, and "Centaur" is mentioned on 16 pages; you should be able to see the list of pages and how many occurences are on each page if you click on the links and then click on the search buttons.
Let me know if you'd like me to request any more scans, or to request the whole book to look through it myself.
BTW, it looks like Internet Archive has various books that cite it and might be useful themselves: https://archive.org/search?query=%22The+Evolution+of+the+Ships+and+Their+Aircraft%22+Hermes+Centaur&sin=TXT

These titles do not seem to exist at that URL, and searching it doesn't find them either. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk) 14:48, 14 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I see, yeah, hmm...
It looks like OCLC 2246774, 85447201 (apparently both list the same holdings) exists in print at my university, so I'll look for it. It does list v. 81 (2000), but it apparently skips v. 78 (1997), which all but one of them are in...
I have access to GeoRef though my university's EBSCOhost, which indicates that these are part of the supplement, which I guess is less available... It also says that they're abstracts from the conference "American Geophysical Union 1997 fall meeting. San Francisco, CA, United States, Dec. 8-12, 1997", so I'll try requesting interlibrary loans from OCLC 31671675 if I can't find them in print here.

I didn't have a ton of time to look, but they don't seem to be included in what I have access to in print. I'll do a bit more searching, but if I can't find anything useful online, should I request ILLs for these? Solomon Ucko (talk) 16:07, 19 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I've attempted to request these from OCLC 31671675.
I also found that HathiTrust says that "volatiles in the most recent eruptions of Aniakchak Volcano, Alaska" appears on p. 276 of Eos v.81 no.48 2000, so I might try to look for that myself at some point.

@Jo-Jo Eumerus: [5]/[6]/[7]/[8]/[9]/[10]/[11] says that "Chemical Characteristics of the Aniakchak Caldera Ash-Flow Sheet" is p. 180 in a supplement. [12] confirms that it's the fall supplement, and that it's abstract GP22A-06. Should I try requesting an ILL for a scan of it from page F180?

From the Barrio, Gutiérrez & D'Elía paper, data on size of the described species is needed. Like height and weight, because currently we have rather imprecise "less than 17 inches" from Miami Herald.
