Elsewhere

Dive deep into your searches. See the full picture of a story, find free research papers, and keep going when a page hits a wall.

Elsewhere helps you dive deep into your searches. Explore the articles you're reading to get the full picture, find free versions of research papers, and keep going when a page hits a wall. THE SAME STORY, ELSEWHERE One click on a news story opens a results page with three tabs. The full picture shows the same story from other outlets, with pictures and snippets, plus a short background card when one fits. Keep exploring shows related stories to keep you reading. You can also search a range of major news outlets directly. DIVE DEEPER INTO YOUR SEARCH When you hit a dead end, Elsewhere points you to the next best route: alternative sources, fallback links and your library's news access, such as PressReader. WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING See what people online are saying about the story, in speech bubbles that link to the original post. Elsewhere pulls short quotes from public forums and social posts, skips anything flagged or in strong language, and shows no profile pictures or names. FREE RESEARCH PAPERS Finds open-access PDFs from a paper's DOI, PubMed ID or arXiv ID (via OpenAlex and, optionally, Unpaywall). One-click searches on Google Scholar, PubMed Central, arXiv and the Internet Archive, plus your own library link, so a paywall isn't the end of your research. Copy a clean citation in one click. SMART BADGE (OPTIONAL) A small toolbar badge shows when you're on a paper (OA) or a news article (NEWS). It needs an optional all-sites permission that you can decline. Elsewhere works without it. MADE TO FIT HOW YOU WORK Add your own library link, add an optional Unpaywall email, choose which fallback links to show, and switch each results source on or off in Settings. PRIVATE BY DESIGN No tracking, no analytics, no accounts. Detection happens on your device, and no browsing history is collected, stored or sold. Only a few key words from a headline (or a paper's identifier) are sent to the services that find results, and only when you open a results page.
