Right now the center hosts a user-modifiable ATA letter supporting the NIH policy and opposing the Conyers bill. If you haven't already written to your House representative to oppose the bill, please take a moment to do so. Unless you want to edit the default letter, it just takes a few clicks. And please spread the word.

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.
