If you are a research scholar, a Ph.D, M.Tech or M.Phil student, chance are, you probably are stuck up in finding the research papers.

Most of the reputed institutes do have a subscription to one or the another journal, but many institutes just plain ignore the need of a subscription.
So, where do we look for the research papers and get them for free?

Here are the various options that I have come across while searching for research papers during my research work. No one solution apply for everyone but I am pretty sure any one of these options will certainly be help you out.

  1. Free (Legal) Options:

    1. http//scholar.google.com:   

      You probably know about this. But what you probably could have missed is the option “All ‘x’ versions” option below the search result. Using this option, you can look for all the copies of the paper at different locations over the web. 
    2. http://highwire.stanford.edu/lists/freeart.dtl:   

      This Stanford university site does list many reputed journals. Some of them are completely free and some have past 12 months of free issues. 
    3. http://openj-gate.org/:   

      This is open access version of J-Gate. I have not personally tried it, but it seems a promising option.
    4. http://www.researchgate.net/:   

      This is a great option of you do have email id on your institute domain. e.g. xyz@institute.com. ResearchGate has a large database of research papers and also a very good platform to publish your research work/draft of research work.  So, if you have an email id of your institute or can arrange one from anyone, go ahead, and grab the opportunity… :)
    5. Ask the author:

      I know this may sound little weird, but this could probably be a very good option as many of the researchers are interested in getting their work ahead, also, it popularizes him/her to be included as the base paper of new researches.
      Tip: Try to contact the last author. He/she is often the Boss: The main researcher.

  2. Free (Illegal) Options:

    1. http://sci-hub.org:

      This is the MOST POWERFUL option. This probably NEVER Fails. This is the grand daddy of piracy in Technical Papers. The servers may some times seem to be down. This is temporary and they are back up very soon. Also, if the servers are down, you can also refer to the next option, which is essentially, an alternative way to sci-hub.org. The way to use it is that you need to enter the url of your paper. The url which on clicking takes you to the page that asks to pay for the paper to download.
    2. http://libgen.org/scimag/:
      This is the alternative way to get into and search the servers of sci-hub.org. There are a few options like “Redirect” which you should probably use carefully.  it redirects you to google scholar search if nothing is found.
    3. http://booksc.org/:
      This is a similar site to sci-hub.org.
    4. http://www.freefullpdf.com/:
      This is a similar site to sci-hub.org.

Finally, always try to use the legal options as, its always better to be on the right side of the law. But may be under certain circumstances, critical to you, you might be forced to use those other options. In any case, go ahead, and start finding your research papers/journal articles. But do always use your conscious.

Happy Researching!!!


Where to get research papers for free  link

Last update  May, 5th, 2016

After the post about ebooks, I have thought you may be interested on academic papers too and here I am! :) THANKS for your contributions to this post!
On the subject education, there is also a new post about the free university courses you can attendonline, for free!!!

Anyway, if you are a PhD student or a researcher you need to download and study other people's scientific works. For most journals (the most important ones) your institution should have already a subscription.
However you'll probably have already experienced that sometimes, you need a paper you cannotdownload through your institution, pretty annoying eh?

So... how can you solve this problem?
Where can you download research papers for free?
Where to find free scientific journal articles?
How to get that f*ck*ng full-text pdf?
Are there alternatives to sci-hub?
Yes, just read below!


By the way, is sci-hub down? NO, once again, just read below!


I will list you several options to address this problem. At least one of them will be suitable for you. I'm 99.9999% sure! ;)

1) Ask to the librarian of your university. He/She knows for sure whom ask the paper you are looking for.

2) Look for the draft version of the published paper.
A good starting point is the Cornell University Library http://arxiv.org/ where many researchers put their papers before they are accepted on some journal.
Very often the authors update the file on arxiv.org even after the acceptance.

3) Search NOT on google.com but on https://scholar.google.com instead.
Insert the reference of your paper (Author(s), journal, volume, page), perform the search and when you find it, click "show all versions".
In this way you can check if the pdf of the paper you are intersted in is available somewhere over the web.

4) Check if your Journal is listed here http://highwire.stanford.edu/lists/freeart.dtl

5) Ask the authors and/or visit their homepages. Or simply ask the "Boss", usually the last author.
Clearly it doesn't work if the paper is too old...

6) http://sci-hub.org and its mirrors
So if sci-hub.org is down, try the mirrors! And if the mirrors are also down... well there are still the other options! 

This is the most powerful option, the only one that NEVER fails but it is also completely illegal.
I mean, it simply doesn't look like something legal, but I could be wrong...  anyway you are warned!
NOTE: Sometimes its servers are down.
This should be temporary and anyway you can still refer to http://libgen.org/scimag/



*** UPDATE #3 on sci-hub from another reader below ***
Apparently, Russian proxies are no-longer required to use sci-hub.org
or sci-hub.io  or   sci-hub.cc

*** UPDATE #2 on sci-hub from another reader below ***
It works with the Russian proxies, but sometimes you'll have to keep trying, which means refreshing your browser or trying again a few minutes later until it works.  

*** UPDATE #1 on sci-hub from a reader below  *** 
Sci-hub is not down, actually. It's just restricted to users inside Russia, which means that you'll be able to access it if you use a Russian proxy. A list of russian proxys: http://www.proxynova.com/proxy-server-list/country-ru/
alternatively you can setup a vpn (for example with Astrill) with access to russian proxies. 


7) http://jxplore.com/ this seems to be the best sci-hub.org alternative.


8) http://booksc.org/
Similar to sci-hub but it works only with "popular" scientific papers. And it's illegal.. probably.

9) http://www.freefullpdf.com/
Similar to sci-hub, it could take some time to load.


10) Already known from the ebook post on this blog:
bookzz.org 
bookfi.org

Free, free subscription, daily limit


11)  https://www.reddit.com/r/Scholar/
At the column at the left of the above page there are listed sites with open access journals

12) Directory of Open Access Journals
 https://doaj.org/


13) PLOS one

http://www.plosone.org/home.action


14) Alphabetical List of Open Access Journals in Ancient Studies
 http://ancientworldonline.blogspot.com.cy/2012/07/alphabetical-list-of-open-access.html


15) I almost forgot! Ask a friend who works at a University, better if he/she is Finnish! This is not a joke! Finnish people working at Universities have access to many on-line journals!

16) As pointed by a reader below... Facebook can also be a valuable resource!


To use it you have simply to copy the link of the paper, just the link you find on the official page of the journal. YES, the one that, if clicked, prompt you immediately on the page where you are asked for the login and/or the money!

In short, http://sci-hub.org is for scientific papers what library.nu was for books and for this,  it will likely experience the same end.

If you CANNOT access sci-hub in your country, just try to install the Firefox and Chrome add-onproxmate


Note...
Probably, if your institution doesn't have the subscription for the journal you want, probably that journal (and consequently the paper you are interested in), is not that important in your research field.

Another possibility could be that your library has not so much money and in this case other solutions are (partially) justified...

Good luck!
