You like to brag about your qualifications.

You seem to use a definition of your own for "bragging". I am wise
enough to admit my ignorance, and to try to learn when I meet a learned
person who is wise enough to share. I am afraid you don't qualify.

Don't they include a
library card?

Regrettably, not every university has a department of Oriental or
Semitic studies. This implies, that not every university library has
the specific books, materials, or collections.

Does your library not provide access to JSTOR?

And it ought to realize that the JAOS is one of the principal journals
in the field, and there _are_ Orientalists in Finland. (Its remit
includes the study of all of pre-Modern Asia.)
