UK Public Libraries Participate in Access to Research Initiative

From Elsevier:

Elsevier is participating in Access to Research – a service to provide the UK public with access to academic research through their local public library.

Access to Research is a sophisticated yet easy-to-use online search tool available to anyone to use at participating public libraries. It has an “intelligent” search interface, allowing users to retrieve relevant search results from across the platforms of many different publishers, thousands of journals, and millions of articles. Once a relevant article is identified, the use can click to the relevant publisher’s platform, where the article is available at no cost to them to their library.
