The July issue of Sustaining Repositories (the newsletter of the APSR) is now online. This issue contains a summary of the APSR June colloquium, the APSR recommendations to the e-Research Strategic Framework Committee on the role of repositories in e-research, the APSR funding priorities for next year, and news from the partners, including DSpace-in-a-box, a simplified installation system for DSpace, and the University of Queensland's forthcoming open-source workflow management system for Fedora.

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.
