HighWire Press Archive Passes 1.7 Million Free Articles Available Online; PubMedCentral Passes the One Million Article Mark

Two database milestones to share.

1) Congrats to the HighWire team at Stanford for passing the 1.7 free article mark in the past couple of days.

HighWire Press at Stanford University develops and maintains the Web versions of important journals in biomedicine and other disciplines.

A division of the Stanford University Libraries, HighWire Press hosts the largest repository of high impact, peer-reviewed content, with 1056 journals and 4,371,495 full text articles from over 130 scholarly publishers.

What about free full-text content?

As of today, the number reads: 1,709,138 free full-text articles as of 7/31/07. Here's a list of journals where free content is available.

If you're wondering, we posted about HighWire Press archive passing the 1.6 million article threshold near the end of March, 2007.
