Two great uses of sci-hub are for historic papers when walking the reference chain backwards in time and anything IEEE.
I really wish IEEE and ACM would open their entire catalog of knowledge over a certain age, I don't really care what year they pick.
- MichaelZuo 5y agoIEEE journals, and especially their standards, do actually provide a value added service that government funding doesn’t cover and they obviously run as part of a non profit so it seems very morally ambiguous. I imagine likewise for ACM.
- sitkack 5y agoI think the work of the standards bodies needs to be disambiguated from Open Access journals. In no way am equating IEEE and ACM with Springer and Elsevier. For the longest time, I think they have recently relaxed a bit, but IEEE forbid authors from posting a copy of their paper on their academic web page.
