This morning the Harvard Journal of Law & Technology sponsored a symposium, Copyright and Fair Use: Present and Future Prospects, with a keynote by Rep. Rick Boucher and panelists Robert Holleyman (President & CEO of the Business Software Alliance), Dan Gillmor (Technology Columnist, San Jose Mercury News), Siva Vaidhyanathan (NYU Professor), Gigi Sohn (President and Co-Founder of Public Knowledge), and Alec French (Minority Counsel, House Subcommittee on Courts, the Internet, and Intellectual Property). There was a live webcast, which may become a recorded webcast for those of us who missed the event.

The open access movement:
Putting peer-reviewed scientific and scholarly literature
on the internet. Making it available free of charge and
free of most copyright and licensing restrictions.
Removing the barriers to serious research.
I recommend the OA tracking project (OATP) as the best way to stay on top of new OA developments. You can read the OATP feed on a blog-like web page or subscribe to it by RSS, email, or Twitter. You can also help build the feed by tagging new developments you encounter.
