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 ?
Emailing the author and asking for the paper
Surprisingly effective and 100% legal
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.
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.
Email sent. Thanks.
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.ruI actually talked with her recently! She didn’t know about Lemmy! So of course I told her last week.
She also said there wasn’t a group chat for sci-hub because of scammers trying to bring the project down from the inside. Which I thought was really sad. If someone creates a group chat and posts it on Lemmy though I feel like it would do really well.
I had some questions about scraping the data and I felt bad having to ask her directly for every little problem I had.
They are asking for recent papers. Sci hub only has payers published before 2022.
Take my upvote for your homage.
