An icon font for academics

An IEEE icon would be great: http://www.ieee.org/index.html
To use academicons from a JS project, it's nowadays customary to include the project in package repository, the most popular being bower and npm. Given that this is front-end code, it'd make much sense to provide a bower.json
with academicons. All packages I'm aware of to that, specifically fontawesome.
hi there,
great to have additional icons for science related stuff - however, I would like to have an DOI icon, would it be possible to get something like that? Would be awesome.
Hi James,
Thanks for this effort - font based icons within academia are really useful in som many contexts. Love to see this grow.
Adding the icon for Open Access [1] would make the set even more useful. Hope this can be accomplished.
Cheers,
Christian

I noticed that commit 0bc9db8 moved zipped file of the version controlled content into version control. This is generally not advised because:
Creating a zip file is rather done as a post processing step. For example, you will notice that GitHub provides nice downloads of the release tags https://github.com/jpswalsh/academicons/releases.
Moreover, I see in the commit history https://github.com/jpswalsh/academicons/commits/master lots of entries like "removed v1.*". It is however not necessary to explicitly remove a version. The general scheme would be that you develop your code in, e.g., the folder fonts
, and tag a commit with 1.6
whenever you think it's ready. No need to keep separate folders for separate releases or anything.
Hi, great set of icons! I'd like to request one for SciRate.
This is a tricky one, because I don't believe Reuters has any branding for ResearcherID aside from their overall corporate logo, which looks near-identical to figshare.
I've seen another icon as just "ID" in Reuters' colors, but it's unfortunately also very similar to ORCID's "iD" branding.
Since ResearchGate changed their icon, can we get an updated version?
Icon request for SSRN https://ssrn.com/en/
An icon for https://www.semanticscholar.org/ would be nice.
As seen here:
link.springer.com
Is there any way for me to go ahead and create new icons?
Is there any interest of forking (if allowed) and maintaining a new font providing more icons?
The SAO/NASA Astrophysics Data System is the standard database for astronomy and astrophysics publications, and most astronomers are linking to their publication record there. It would be great to have an academicon for this.
The new ADS site is https://ui.adsabs.harvard.edu, and it features the an icon in SVG format.
I was wondering if you could post some basic directions on how you make the fonts and make them compatible with Font Awesome commands. I already have the vector graphic that I'd like to use, and I have had minor success in making a font using fontastic.me, but it's not compatible with the other commands (like fa-3x). I'm already using some Font Awesome icons and a few of your Academic Icons, I just want to add something else to my own personal font. Thanks for your help!
I created SVG that you can add to your icon but I can't attach it here.
Please let me know if you are interested and how can I upload it.
First and foremost, thanks a lot for the incredible font. Very useful.
I would like to ask for the addition of the Curriculo Lattes' logo. Curriculo Lattes is a platform maintained by the Brazilian government, and if a researcher wants to ever have his research funded by a government agency they have to be registered in this platform. So, for us from Brazil, it is quite important.
If I can help somehow, please let me know. I don't know anything about how to make a font, but I am a quick learner. :-)
Academia.edu has rebranded itself with a new look.
academia icon.svg.zip
I am attaching an SVG in ZIP file.
Hello, I tried to import it with share latex
but for some reason I'm unable to get any icon.
I add a \RequiredPackage{academicons}
and I have the academicons.sty
imported and the academicons.tff
also.
Is there something specific to be able to use it on share latex
?
Thank you
An icon for http://dblp.uni-trier.de/ would be nice.
INSPIRE-HEP is the leading literature database for high energy physics. Could you add an icon for it? Their favicon is at http://inspirehep.net/favicon.ico.
If you'd prefer, I could try to make one and submit a pull request - just tell me what needs to be done.
Thanks for taking the time to provide what Font Awesome hasn't.
Ok not really an issue but I just found this (thanks @karthik!) and it's super cool. Well done!
Lots of philosophers use PhilPapers, and have profiles on there where they list their publications. I don't know if they have an icon available for you to use. If they do it would be a nice addition.
Thanks for creating these icons! I'm trying to use them in a Jekyll site based on the beautiful Jekyll template. There's a row of (stacks of) Font-Awesome icons in the footer:
But as soon as I include the Academicons css, their alignment gets out of whack:
If I try to add an Academicon to the row, I get this nonsense:
I apologize for my ignorance of all things css, but do you have any idea where the conflict might come from? The code for the footer is here.
Thanks in advance!
Any chance of getting a dataverse icon? They're on GitHub at https://github.com/iqss/dataverse
First of all, thanks for doing this project. This is really a nice and useful set of icons, please keep up the good work!
However, the dblp icon seems a little bit off the mark to me, up to the point I find it personally quite hard to recognize its shape. I derived a monochrome version from the original dblp signet file and attached it as SVG to this issue ticket. You may use this file to update the dblp icon if you like.
In case you need any further sources for the dblp icon please just let me know.

(edit: upload failed the first time)
I am using the icons as follows:
<a class="ai ai-google-scholar-square ai-3x" href="http://www.example.com">example.com</a>
Unfortunately, this changes the font type of the "example.com" Link due to the definition of class type .ai
.
I get the desired result (Link in default font and prepended icon), when chaning the CSS as follows:
Old:
.ai {
display:inline-block;
font:normal normal normal 14px/1 Academicons;
font-size:inherit;
text-rendering:auto;
-webkit-font-smoothing:antialiased;
-moz-osx-font-smoothing:grayscale;
}
New:
.ai {
display:inline-block;
font:normal normal normal 14px/1 Academicons;
font-size:inherit;
text-rendering:auto;
-webkit-font-smoothing:antialiased;
-moz-osx-font-smoothing:grayscale;
}
Is there any reason for not defining the CSS like this?
Thanks so much for sharing your implementation of these svg icons. Very elegant and much appreciated (particularly as someone who has been watching FontAwesome#541 for a long time ;-)).
Wondering if you would consider implementing similar icons for either of these:
Here are a few additional suggestions. I love the set you've made already (I'm using them here: http://faculty.washington.edu/bmarwick/), thanks for making them available.
First, thanks for this great piece of work, I am starting to use the Google Scholar and Research Gate icons on my website. However, I miss an arXiv icon in this wonderful academic collection. I opened an issue in FontAwesome some time ago, but was ignored as with most of the academic requests...
Here are two images based on the favicon:
http://arxiv.org/favicon.ico (lower quality)
http://www.userlogos.org/node/2070 (better quality, nor the water effect or the text are part of the logo)
Please add icons for Wikipedia, Wikidata, Wikimedia Commons, and their sister projects.
How do I use Academicons ttf font in Photoshop?
Installed the font. It's listed in Word but not in Photoshop.
Is there any possibility to create an icon of The dblp computer science bibliography?.
depsy mines GitHub to determine dependency relationships and estimate contributor credit. Their favicon is a circled "d" and is probaby an easier choice than their full logo (which would probably be hard to read at small sizes).
Would it be possible to get a bioRxiv or PeerJ Pre-print icon? Also, is there a generic pre-print icon (perhaps something like the PayPal logo)?
May not be an issue, but, when I set this up, the fa-2x option did not work (rendered same size with or without it). However, in tinkering I placed the CSS file line before the font-awesome one and it works fine...
E.g. the following worked for me :
<link href='academic-icons/academicons.css' rel='stylesheet' type='text/css'>
<link href='font-awesome/css/font-awesome.min.css' rel='stylesheet' type='text/css'>
putting them the other way round broke the fa-2x option (for me).
This aside, I love these icons (having been watching the +1's on the FontAwesome support list for some time!). Keep up the good work :D ๐
Frontiers would be a popular icon with academics I'm sure. The main logo icon is the cubes, and they also have Frontiers Loop which is their social network for academics and has an icon with a bunch of circles all cobbled together like a hairball.
Thank you for the incredibly useful icon set!
I don't see a twitter icon.
Hi, thank you for the font :)
Here at Overleaf we liked it, and thought we could propose our logo: overleaf-square.svg.zip
Many university classes use Piazza as an online discussion forum. It would be great to get an icon. (It's not a terribly exciting one, being just the 'p' in a box, but maybe that makes it a quick addition?)
I don't see a github icon.
May I suggest adding the following icon. Repec services are very popular within economics:
