In summary, there are several ways to find a needed paper, such as checking online databases and contacting the author. If the paper is behind a paywall, accessing it through a university or library subscription or requesting it from a colleague may be options. If the paper is not available through these methods, requesting it through interlibrary loan or searching for it on free access websites may be necessary. When using online sources, it's important to evaluate their credibility by checking the author's credentials, publication date, and sources used. If a paper is needed urgently, contacting the author, requesting it through interlibrary loan, or using expedited delivery or rush services may be helpful.

Hi. I'm looking for this paper, which is referenced in some papers I've been reading. The thing is I don't know how to get it, or where to buy it. I thought that perhaps someone here could help me.

This is it: "Kaltenbach and Kaschke (1993): Frequency and time-domain modelling of light transport in random media".

Thanks in advance.
