Open University - Journal access

[Cromulent]

I've started doing an Open University degree with the Open University and remember being very excited when I found out that students of the OU could get access to many different academic journals for free. This was before the course started. Fast forward a bit and because I had been busy the whole journal thing got forgotten for a period of time. Fast forward to today and I have absolutely no idea what scheme or subscription I got from being a student at the OU and allowed such open access to some of the best material in the STEM world.

Can anyone jog my memory at all? I'm pulling my hair out. My memory is terrible!

Presumably, via their library, see what online access you have.

You posted a thread about starting an OU degree back in 2019 (and seem to have posted a few threads where you have all sorts of ambitions/dreams etc..):

Thinking of doing a maths degree - does anyone have any advice?

I'm seriously considering starting a maths degree in October and was wondering if anyone had any advice. Ultimately I'd like to get into game development and electrical engineering so I thought doing a maths degree would kill two birds with one stone. What are the career prospects for maths...

It's good to dream but it might be an idea to focus on getting the smaller stuff actually done - focus on the actual degree now and get that completed before you start getting into reading (presumably maths related) journals - if you've only recently started it then that could be a bit ambitious anyway, maybe hold off until you're in the equivalent of 3rd year.

Thank you for the advice. I'm an extremely impulsive individual and waste so much time from changing direction every other day. Some of my online friends have even suggested I see a doctor about ADHD. I admit I have a problem but not one that serious. I just get over-excited .
