the first pirate website in the world to provide mass and public access to tens
of millions of research papers


A research paper is a special publication written by scientists to be read by
other researchers. Papers are primary sources neccessary for research – for
example, they contain detailed description of new results and experiments.

papers in Sci-Hub library:
more than 70,000,000 and growing

At this time the widest possible distribution of research papers, as well as of
other scientific or educational sources, is artificially restricted by copyright
laws. Such laws effectively slow down the development of science in human
society. The Sci-Hub project, running from 5th September 2011, is challenging
the status quo. At the moment, Sci-Hub provides access to hundreds of thousands
research papers every day, effectively bypassing any paywalls and restrictions.

If it were not for Sci-Hub – I wouldn't be able to do my thesis in Materials
Science (research related to the structure formation in aluminum alloys)

Sci-Hub ideas
knowledge to all
no copyright
open access

We fight inequality in knowledge access across the world. The scientific
knowledge should be available for every person regardless of their income,
social status, geographical location and etc.

Our mission is to remove any barrier which impeding the widest possible
distribution of knowledge in human society!

We advocate for cancellation of intellectual property, or copyright laws, for
scientific and educational resources.

Copyright laws render the operation of most online libraries illegal. Hence many
people are deprived from knowledge, while at the same time allowing rightholders
to have a huge benefits from this. The copyright fosters increase of both
informational and economical inequality.

The Sci-Hub project supports Open Access movement in science. Research should be
published in open access, i.e. be free to read.

The Open Access is a new and advanced form of scientific communication, which is
going to replace outdated subscription models. We stand against unfair gain that
publishers collect by creating limits to knowledge distribution.
