There follows a list of free and open access databases and academic tools. These are available to anyone at anytime and will be there for you even after you leave University. It is well worth acquainting yourself with these resources.

OPEN ACCESS - ELENCO RAGIONATO RISORSE

ACL Anthology [INFO]
The ACL Anthology currently hosts over 19,800 papers on the study of computational linguistics. The Anthology home page now features search connecting to the ACL Anthology Searchbench and ACL Author Network.

Arxiv [INFO]
arXiv is an openly accessible, moderated repository for

scholarly articles in specific scientific disciplines, including physics, mathematics, computer science, nonlinear sciences, quantitative biology and statistics. As an electronic archive, arXiv makes a commitment to provide persistent access to all announced submissions. arXiv is thus maintained with a focus on the perpetual availability of submissions.

Bibsonomy [INFO]
BibSonomy is a system for sharing bookmarks and lists of literature. When discovering a bookmark or a publication on the web, you can store it on the BibSonomy server, or tag post to retrieve it more easily. This is very similar to the bookmarks system that you use in your browser. Not only does BibSonomy allow you to access your bibliographical data from wherever you are, it allows you to share what you are reading with your friends, colleagues or the public at large.

BioMed Central [INFO]
BioMed Central makes freely and permanently available original research articles immediately upon publication. All research articles are rapidly and thoroughly peer-reviewed. Many BioMed Central journals are tracked by Thomson Reuters and all are referenced by Scopus and Google Scholar.

BioOne [INFO]
BioOne sees sustainable scholarly publishing as an inherently collaborative enterprise connecting authors, nonprofit publishers, academic institutions, research libraries, and research funders in the common goal of maximizing access to critical research. BioOne explores economic models and strategic partnerships that balance the needs of all stakeholders, and currently demonstrates this balance by offering financially sustainable information services in the biological sciences. BioOne supports best practices that increase operational effectiveness and technological standards that integrate its content with a global network of scholarly exchange. Currently it has 11 open access journals, including material not currently searchable via either DOAJ or Open J-Gate.

CiteULike [INFO]
CiteULike is a free service to help you to store, organise and share the scholarly papers you are reading.

Because your library is stored on the server, you can access it from any computer with an Internet connection.

Clinical Trials [INFO]
ClinicalTrials.gov offers up-to-date information for locating federally and privately supported clinical trials for a wide range of diseases and conditions.
