Paywalls are frustrating. We’ve all been locked out of research, whether we’re writing a paper or researching the disease of a loved one. Our request system asks authors to share their work with researchers, journalists, students, and the curious. We’ve received almost ten thousand requests for paywalled research.

For the past year, the Open Access Button has been working to integrate our service with library catalogs and interlibrary loan systems — to surface accessible copies of articles directly through library discovery systems and fulfill interlibrary loan requests instantly when accessible copies are available in repositories.

We’ve been working on how to get around paywalls legally and connect people with accessible versions of papers since 2013. It’s a hard problem to solve! That’s why we’re so pleased to see Unpaywall and oaDOI (from the team behind Impactstory) working on this problem. Unpaywall and oaDOI are terrifically designed browser plugins and websites that instantly and legally find accessible copies of articles, if they are available.
