“PhilPapers uses advanced trawling techniques and
large-scale crowd-sourcing to monitor all sources of research content in
philosophy, including journals, books, personal pages, and open access
archives. Our index currently includes 1,798,467 research books and articles.
Over 5,000 individuals have contributed content to our index.” (Source)
“PhilPapers' index and its archive are integrated with the
largest structured bibliography in the field. PhilPapers' structured
bibliography organizes half a million entries into 5,111 topics at different
levels of generality. Classification is maintained by a combination of
automatic classification, crowd-sourcing, and curation work done by
approximately 400 appointed academics.” (Source)
PhilPapers is an Open Access Archive, however, UNCC Atkins
library recently became an institutional subscriber which allows our users to link
out from the database to the library collection to find the full-text or, if
the library does not have, request it through Inter-library Loan.
We invite you to start exploring this comprehensive
database!
