Ok, so I have a paper due on Wednesday that has to written from a scholarly source. Not a problem, says I, who have written many, many papers from scholarly sources. I can write it the night before it's due and no problem, since I work best under pressure.

Only now I can't get the college library to work for me. I can't get to the articles I need! I have to have this paper written and shiny by Wed, with at least the first two pages of the article printed out. And I can't. Get. To. THEM! Ahhhhh!

Yes, I am panicking!!!! Did I mention I have to present this paper in front of the class? I know what I want to right, my arguments, everything I'm going to say, but if I can't get these fucking articles I'm so screwed!!!! OMG, I fucking hate my prof right now!

*Whimper*

*Wrings hands*

Yes, yes I am a nervous wreck! And to top it off, I managed, somehow, to get to the articles I needed earlier but when I went to print them out my printer ran out of ink, and now I have no clue how the hell I got to the articles in the first place!!

GAAHHHHHH!!!!!

Are the scholarly sources you need available on a full-text database such as JSTOR? (that's a history one, but it's the example I know best). If so, you could use the college library to find them, and (web-based email is a blessing here) email them to yourself for printing at home, or print them at the library. That's the technique I used before I got a laptop. Now I just save them at the library to use at home.
