Hi folks

I've been chasing my tail most of the week attempting to obtain copies
(either electronic or print) of a few articles that in a publication that it
seems no-one in New Zealand subscribes to.  The publication is the Alberta
Report and though I have found a home page for it on the net, the index does
not cover the period I require.  I did manage to download a 1996 article
which was just two pages in length.  Cost - as always - is a vital
consideration, and so far my best offer is the campus library's offer of
attempting to obtain it through Firstsearch at an estimated cost of $NZ30
per article.  If they are also only two pages long, the cost is ridiculous.
Can anyone advise me of a more cost-effective method?  There is no great
urgency at present, so ordinary mail is a possibility if all else fails.

There are three articles in all which I will list in hopes that someone may
already have them and be in a position to forward them.  I would also
appreciate some information on the Alberta Report itself.  From my
observations on the Net it appears to lean towards the right (distinct
"Christian Coalition" flavour at times) and is possibly a family affair, but
I have no idea as to its credibility/reputation, or as to its contributors
(the staff are listed, but the names mean nothing to me).

The articles are:
"More blows to parental control" Apr 17, 1995
"Seeking a balance on parental control" June 20, 1994
"Educating educrats on parental control" June 6, 1994

All suggestions gratefully received
