Two new modules on the Connexions site were recently added by Ukraine-based Nauka Publishers and the Center for American Literary Studies in Ukraine at the Taras Shevchenko Institute of Literature of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine. (Thanks to EIFL.) The courses:
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.
