LibProxy: Off-campus research made easier
LibProxy is a free Chrome add-on developed by Tanuj Wadhi that aims to make accessing research papers while off-campus a breeze. With this tool, users no longer have to deal with the frustration of being unable to access valuable research articles.
Upon setting up your institution's library URL, LibProxy adds an icon to your menu bar and also to any webpage that contains a valid research article. This makes it incredibly convenient to identify and access articles that are available through your institution's library.
The highlight of LibProxy is its one-click redirection feature. With just a single click, users are redirected through their institution's library to the unlocked version of the article they are trying to access. This eliminates the need for complicated workarounds or multiple steps to gain access to research papers.
LibProxy is a must-have tool for researchers, students, and anyone who frequently accesses research articles while off-campus. It simplifies the process and ensures seamless access to valuable information.
