So I’m a science nerd. But now I’m not part of a university I've been completely cut off from the scientific community. Journals are behind paywalls and conferences are way too expensive for me to attend! Why is it so difficult to do independent science?

@ohuu This may not be much of a help but if you have public library access you may have access to journal databases. Also universities may allow alumni access. This could at least help with the paywall issue.

@SandyKendell thanks so much, that would be awesome!
