One of the criteria for this “50 Best” collection was that papers were freely available to link to or host on the IHRA website. However, due to the nature of intellectual property rights, there were some articles that met every criteria for inclusion except this last one, and deserved a mention on the website, even if they were not freely available.

This list is useful to anyone interested in further resources for HIV prevention and care amongst injecting drug users, and especially those who have free or academic access to scientific journals etc.

Several papers included here are also recommendations from the International Reference Panel.
