Emory University is digitizing thousands of its rare public-domain books and will make them available in OA and print-on-demand editions. The Emory library houses more than 200,000 public-domain books. For details, see yesterday's press release. (Thanks to Charles Bailey.)

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.
