Prue Adler of ARL has written an FAQ on the NIH OA plan. (PS: So have I, but the two FAQ's focus on different issues. Read both and pass on to colleagues or constituents the one that best addresses their concerns. Every attempt to spread clarity and knowledge on this plan helps the cause.)

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.
