PhilPapers is an interactive academic database of journal articles in philosophy.[1] It is maintained by the Centre for Digital Philosophy at the University of Western Ontario, and as of 2022,[update] it has "394,867 registered users, including the majority of professional philosophers and graduate students".[2] The general editors are its founders, David Bourget and David Chalmers.[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 run and publish the most extensive ongoing survey of academic philosophers.[6]
