Abstract

We introduce Get Free Copy (https://getfreecopy.com), a web-based platform designed to streamline the search for biomedical literature across major repositories like arXiv, bioRxiv, medRxiv, and PubMed Central (PMC). Addressing challenges posed by paywalls and fragmented databases, it offers a unified interface for efficient retrieval of free, legitimate copies of biomedical literature. The platform's implementation involves a Node.js backend and dynamic front-end display, enhancing accessibility and research efficiency. As an open-source project, Get Free Copy represents a significant contribution to the open-access movement, inviting global researcher collaboration for further development.<br />Competing Interests: KH is a co-founder and board member of a not-for-profit organization, Open Box Science, where he does not receive any compensation. All other authors declare no competing interests.<br /> (© The Author(s) 2024.)
