- AlotOfReading 8y agoSci-Hub is great, but it absolutely does not have everything published. I try to keep up with the archaeology journals and maybe 1/3rd of papers I look for are available.
- thatcat 8y agoIIRC they download the paper as you enter the doi if it is not already in their catalogue; so does moscow library just not have subscriptions to the journals you're looking for or what?
- tokai 8y agoNot all articles have dois.
- yesenadam 8y agoOh that's interesting. I search for stuff over a wide variety of fields, and find like 95%+ of what I search for. Some of it is so obscure I'm amazed they have it. Try libgen scientific articles, e.g. http://libgen.io/scimag/index.php?s=archaeology http://libgen.io/scimag/index.php?s=archaeology .. ALso you can search by journal number (or click on journal name) and all issues are shown in a table.
- hyperbovine 8y agohttps://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5832410/ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5832410/ If you can't find it on Sci-Hub, chances are that a top-tier R1 does not have it either.
- jumelles 8y agoYep, Sci-Hub is sorely lacking when it comes to humanities. I've had several DOIs just come up empty after it tries all its proxies.
- natechols 8y agoThis is not an option for big universities (or big companies) unless they want to get sued.
