I’m looking for recently published research papers. I’m wondering what are the methods of obtaining recently published research papers apart from methods described in the megathread ?
I wrote a small homage to Alexandra Elbakyan on my PhD Thesis because her courage and dedication helped me get throw that stage of my academic life. Here are the URLs listed on Wikipedia. They might be blocked by DNS providers, but afaik the project is alive and works for many papers (unless it’s too recent) ymmv.
sci-hub.se sci-hub.st sci-hub.ru
Take my upvote for your homage.
They are asking for recent papers. Sci hub only has payers published before 2022.
Emailing the author and asking for the paper
Email sent. Thanks.
Surprisingly effective and 100% legal
This is the way. Also they sometimes go the extra mile and send you preprints of stuff that’s not out yet.
Most researchers are into sharing their work.
If the author of a paper isn’t excited at the idea of sharing their work with an interested party, I’d honestly immediately question the value of their academic contributions anyway.
Me too. In my experience even super successful “star” ones are happy to share.
Be an active Wikipedia editor
Elaborate please.
