The Open Access Button is a browser bookmarklet that lets users report when they are denied access to research, then search for alternative access to the article. Each time a user encounters a paywall, they simply click the Button in their bookmark bar, fill out an optional dialogue box, and their experience is added to a map alongside other users.
