Our Take
Wiley Online Library is another major publisher platform — the full-text home for Wiley’s journals, many of them society-published flagship titles in chemistry, medicine, and the social sciences. It is a quality catalogue, but as with ScienceDirect and SpringerLink it is one publisher’s slice, and you will bounce between platforms to assemble a full review. Use it for Wiley and society titles; discover across the field with a citation index and follow the DOIs.
Power Tips
- Many Wiley titles are society journals — check here for flagship discipline journals you cannot find elsewhere.
- Check Unpaywall before paying per-article.
- Use DOIs to move cleanly between Wiley and your reference manager.
