Yesterday Chris Watkins released a beta version of Public Domain Search, a Google co-op search engine for online collections of public domain content. It has started with US federal government sites, but plans to expand.
If you have a comment on the beta, post it to the Appropedia forum. Your comment could nominate other sites for inclusion.

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.
