Academic Source Finder

Working test version

Academic Source Finder

Search scholarly metadata and public academic journal indexes. Always read and verify the original publication before citing or relying on it.

Search precision
Access and copyright: this tool searches bibliographic metadata and public journal indexes, stores no article PDFs, links to lawful source pages, and does not bypass subscriptions, paywalls or other access controls. Availability of a link does not mean that full text is Open Access.

Search data may be supplied by Crossref, OpenAlex, Europe PMC and participating/public journal websites. Bibliographic records can contain errors or omissions. Verify important details at the journal, publisher or DOI record.

OpenAlex Journal Citation Check

Enter a journal title or ISSN to see the basic journal-level indicators currently reported by OpenAlex.

About these figures: these are OpenAlex journal/source indicators, not a Clarivate Journal Impact Factor. OpenAlex notes that source-level counts are precomputed and may differ from a live work-level audit. The free check does not determine whether every article published by the journal is correctly indexed.

Data source: OpenAlex. No article PDFs are downloaded or stored.
