Open-access resources

Making criminology free and useful.

CrimConsortium is an international group of institutions and individuals who make criminology open — free to read, share, and reuse. It increases the quantity, quality, and use of open-access articles, reports, books, teaching materials, and other outputs. This website directs visitors to what it makes and supports, the flagship being CrimRxiv.
