iSSRN, a free iPhone App, is now available. "It provides instant access
to the latest Social Science and Humanities research in the SSRN
eLibrary from scholars around the world. 

 

iSSRN is available from Apple's iTunes store. iSSRN allows iPhone and
iPod Touch users to search over 250,000 papers and read the full text of
the papers directly on their device

 

Note: This is an updated version of the previous iSSRN App and this
version, not the previous one, will be updated in the future.

 

Social Science Research Network (SSRN) is devoted to the rapid worldwide
dissemination of social science research and is composed of a number of
specialized research networks in each of the social sciences. We have
received several excellence awards for our web site. 

 

Each of SSRN's networks encourages the early distribution of research
results by publishing Submitted abstracts and by soliciting abstracts of
top quality research papers around the world. We now have hundreds of
journals, publishers, and institutions in Partners in Publishing that
provide working papers for distribution through SSRN's eLibrary and
abstracts for publication in SSRN's electronic journals.

 

The SSRN eLibrary consists of two parts: an Abstract Database containing
abstracts on over 260,300 scholarly working papers and forthcoming
papers and an Electronic Paper Collection currently containing over
213,700 downloadable full text documents in Adobe Acrobat pdf format.
The eLibrary also includes the research papers of a number of Fee Based
Partner Publications.
