Currently on its 10th volume, Buildings is a "peer-reviewed, open access journal on building science, building engineering and architecture." At the link above, readers can browse articles from all of these volumes. The Journal Browser tool on the left-hand side invites readers to filter by volume and issue, and the journal's home page lists articles in order of recency. Click on a piece to view an excerpt and download the full text. Those interested in searching for a particular topic or author can do so using the query bar at the top of the site. While the default search option limits results to articles from Buildings, readers should note they can adjust this setting to search other journals. Those interested in receiving the latest issue straight to their inbox can subscribe via the E-Mail Alert box in the top-right corner.

The journal is published by the Multidisciplinary Publishing Institute (MDPI) (publisher of Genes, featured in the 12-16-2016 Scout Report).
