Our Take
Paperity is a straightforward open-access aggregator — a single searchable index of gold and hybrid OA articles pulled from thousands of journals, aimed at readers who want free full text without wading through paywalled results. It overlaps heavily with larger aggregators like CORE and BASE and doesn’t add much curation, so its value is convenience and a clean interface rather than unique coverage. Use it as one more free full-text search; for scale and API access, CORE and BASE are stronger.
Power Tips
- Use it as a quick, clean search when you specifically want open-access full text.
- Cross-check coverage against CORE and BASE, which index more.
- For programmatic access at scale, prefer CORE’s or BASE’s APIs.
