PhilPapers is an international, interactive academic database of journal articles for professionals and students in philosophy.[1] It is maintained by the Centre for Digital Philosophy at the University of Western Ontario.
As of 2012[update], the general editors are David Bourget (ANU and University of London) and David Chalmers (ANU). It has a good position in the world ranking of repositories.[2]
PhilPapers receives financial support from other organizations, including a substantial grant in early 2009 from the Joint Information Systems Committee in the United Kingdom.[3] The archive is praised for its comprehensiveness and organization,[4] and for its regular updates.[5] In addition to archiving papers, the editors engage in surveying academic philosophers.[6]
