it sucks to be poor

Well kids, it looks like my massive annotated bibliography has hit yet another snag. I just finished filing a bunch of ILL requests for book chapters, and my inbox is quickly filling with responses stating that I can indeed have the chapters I've requested -- if I'm willing to pay between $10-20 a pop. (I suspect that there's a fee because these books were published outside of the US.) If all of the chapters have a price, then I'm looking at a potential $100-200 price tag. And that's only if all my other requests can be filled for free.

I'm going to talk to my prof. about this on Monday. She told us that if fees became a problem, to talk to her and see if the texts in question can be excluded.I don't think I have a choice, since I don't have that kind of cash to throw around.
