No tracking, no data collection, just simple redirection

Abracademic is a browser extension that provides one-click access to academic papers through your institution’s library proxy.

When you encounter a paywalled paper, Abracademic redirects you through your institution’s authentication system, giving you immediate access to the full text if your institution has a subscription.

How it works

  1. Install the extension for your browser
  2. Enter your institution’s EZProxy or OpenAthens URL
  3. Click the Abracademic button when you hit a paywall
  4. You’re redirected through your institution and can access the paper

No accounts, no tracking, no complexity. Just access to the research you need.
