Hi Matthew,
It would be a good idea to list these journals/publisher websites and suitable commercial companies that allow you to buy articles individually (such as www.infotrieve.com). You may be able to contact the ASTC webmaster.
Unfortunately, most of these journals are only available to university staff and students. I can only access many articles because I have done external study through an Australian university. Even if I paid several hundred dollars as an external category borrower, I could not access many journals which have switched to online subscriptions for recent editions (all part of the open access problem).
Can zoos and aquariums help out with sources of environmental education research?

Cindy,
What a great list! This needs to be placed somewhere on a widely
linked web page. It took me forever to come up with some of these,
until I started talking to the right people. I may not have asked the
question, but I sure appreciate your answer! Maybe we can get ASTC to
add these to one of the lists on their website...
Anyone know how to do that?
