Free scientific articles

Here are sites where I go to when I search for scientific articles:
First, I search for the article in Pubmed. If the article has a FREE full text, it is written on the upper right hand corner of the page and open that link. Otherwise go to the next step written below.

Second: I go to (http://scholar.google.com.ph/schhp?tab=ms) for the articles which Pubmed has abstracts only. Type the article inside the box of Google scholar and when it comes out, click the phrases at the end of the title of the article which say “All 3…. versions” etc. The versions will come out and choose the version which gives a full article (if you are lucky, one or 2 of the versions may be free).

Another site which is helpful to me is: http://www.unilab.com.ph/hcp/registration.asp. Register as a health professional and you will be given a username. You choose a password afterwards. You will be given instructions. They always give the article that you are searching for within 24 hours EXCEPT during weekends. You will be alerted in your email if the article is already in the unilab e-SDB MD central download center: (http://www.unilab.com.ph/hcp/index.asp).

Happy Searching!
