What’s in it right now

Read from open-access repositories and the publishers that run them, so a paper arrives with its identifier attached rather than as a page that happens to describe it.

What you can do with it

Trace a claim to its study

Find the work a figure came from, not an article summarising it.

See the design, not just the result

Sample size and method travel with the paper, so a small trial cannot pass as a settled finding.

Separate confirmation from contradiction

Studies that found an effect are kept distinct from those that did not.

Follow the citation

Each work carries its formal reference, so a point can be cited and checked.

Where it’s used

Research

The Research workspace reads this collection directly, so a notebook can cite the study rather than a page about it.

The index behind it

Read, filed and kept current.

This collection is one shelf of the askFinz index — material read from the source and filed as the kind of thing it is, rather than as undifferentiated web pages. The counts above are read from the running system.
