The WHO's International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) has started to offer free online full-text PDFs for its monographs. It now has free online editions of its three most recent monographs and will add others retroactively. (Thanks to medinfo.)

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.
