Since you asked... Let's just say your tone is somewhat 
antagonistic. How about this:

It's nice that you can do all this collection at your site. Could
you act as an intermediary for those of us who don't have access?
Thanks in advance for your speedy reply.

ps - does your school receive gov't sponsored research grants? If
so, you ain't non-taxpayer supported my friend. One of the largest
private taxpayer supported schools in the U.S. is located in and
around Menlo Park, CA. (but we won't name names...)
