This project is taken from an electronic communication that the authors held with Mr. José Antonio González Treviño, Chancellor of the Nuevo Leon Autonomous Univeristy (UANL, Universidad Autónoma de Nuevo León), Mexico, to whom this project was presented on 8th May 2008. The project has the aim to become the First Institutional Repository in Open Access to all Scientific and Professional Research at Nuevo Leon Autonomous University, Mexico (RIAAI-UANL) in all the university disciplines included Librarianship, Library Science, Information Science and other Documental Information Sciences.

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.
