Many publishers have now made their material more widely available than usual because of the exceptional Coronavirus situation. Some publishers have opened their material to anyone to read, some have opened additional material to existing subscribers, or removed restrictions on concurrent users, and some have only opened publications related to COVID19 studies.
The material has been opened by eg. Elsevier, Springer Nature, Taylor & Francis, and Wiley. And in addition to these there are license extensions for Ebsco and ProQuest ebooks from certain listed publishers.
The following table, updated by The International Coalition of Library Consortia ICOLC, provides a list of resources made available:
