I was genuinely impressed by how effortless this extension makes accessing paywalled journal articles! Instead of relying on the NUS Libproxy bookmark, this tool automates the process with a single click. No need to manually edit URLs or go through multiple steps—just instant access to academic resources without any hassle.
What stands out is how smoothly it works while keeping things simple. It doesn’t collect any user data, which is a huge plus for privacy. Since it’s an independent tool and not affiliated with NUS Libraries, it’s purely built for convenience, and it delivers exactly as promised.
For any NUS student or staff dealing with journal paywalls, this extension is a must-have. It saves time, streamlines research, and makes academic work much more efficient. Definitely worth installing!

Load NUS Libproxy has been a game-changer for my academic pursuits at NUS. Gone are the days of tedious bookmark management; this extension seamlessly integrates and provides direct access to the coveted journal articles behind paywalls. It's become an essential tool in my research arsenal, allowing me to dive into resources with a mere click. A big shoutout to the creator for developing such a handy tool tailored for the NUS community!
For potential users, bear in mind that this tool is specifically designed for National University of Singapore students and staff. So, ensure you have a valid NUS account to make the most of it.
P.S.: Would love to see a curated list of similarly invaluable tools for the academic community. Great work on this one!
