OEDear ...

I accidentally attended a book sale today, but was very restrained and only purchased language books that I actually need for my appalling French and Italian, and a couple of history tomes, which are [Poll #1580212]And lil, thank you for your comment! I had to delete and start again because the poll was not working for me, hope it does this time!

My local library allows users to log on to their subscription copy using their library ID - you might try that as a first option before heading for the bookshop.

ETA That's log in to the OED from my home computer - I don't have to go to the library.

I should see if I have access through the uni I sometimes teach at ... but I am there so rarely these days, I keep forgetting I can still wrangle the odd academic privilege!
