A curated directory of notable academic computer science papers maintained by the Papers We Love community, with links to papers and some hosted PDFs. It also anchors a global community with local chapter meetups, a Discord, and recorded presentations.
Use cases
- find classic computer science papers to read
- curated reading list of academic CS papers
- learn distributed systems from original papers
- join a community that discusses research papers
- find papers on programming languages and theory
- discover CS paper repositories and resources
When to choose
- you want a community-vetted collection of influential CS papers
- you prefer learning from primary academic sources
- you want meetup or video presentations alongside papers
When to avoid
- you need tutorials or beginner-friendly explanations rather than papers
- you want a tool or software rather than a reading list
- you need guaranteed access to full paper PDFs, since licensing limits hosting
