Which python version do you use?

[mohammad-gh009]

Python 3.10.12

Hey @mohammad-gh009,

I had some time this morning and released paperscraper 0.2.13 which should fix this issue. The issue did not come from paperscraper itself but it is due to a dependency on an outdated version of scholarly. The PR #47 is bumping the scholarly dependency which should circumvent the error with requests[security] that you are observing.

Please try running the notebook again and consider directly installing the latest release (paperscraper==0.2.13) if the issue persists

thanks @jannisborn
