Lazy Scholar
This browser extension lets you find an open-access version of a scientific article and automatically rename the downloaded PDFs.
Is there a free full version of an article that you are reading a summary of?
With the 'Lazy Scholar' extension for Google Chrome and Mozilla Firefox, an information and action bar automatically appears and tells you whether the full text is available free of charge.
Lazy Scholar also allows you to automatically rename the PDF you have downloaded with the structure ‘author_year_journal.pdf’ and provides various metrics.
