Where to turn to if I need books that are paywalled behind overly expensive academic portals?
I need some books paywalled behind Oxford Politics Trove and they aren’t on Anna’s lib, Zlib, Libgen, Memory of the World, Aaarg, or the Internet Archive. Not sure to whom else to turn to. I hate that knowledge like this is paywalled, and I highly doubt the authors will be paid if I pay the highway robbery of a price.

Did you try sci hub for the separate chapters (if they have separate doi)?
Sci hub no longer updates, and these books are too recent.
Use libgen
Edit: you can also check the FMHY Wiki for sources.
I’ve already mentioned in the body that it ain’t on libgen. Otherwise there wouldn’t be a point of asking. I’ll check the other wiki though, thanks.
You sure about scihub? I am finished without it. Do you know what's going on there?
Yes, as a result of SciHub’s ongoing litigation in India, they voluntarily decided to stop updating their database. This is old news. You can look it up.
