I'm at a conference and then will be on vacation. Preparing for the trip, including wrapping up work on other projects, along with Peter's start at the Berkman Center and travel directly before that, have contributed to the abnormal quiet in posting at OAN. I apologize and, as Peter did, urge readers to follow the OATP feed and other blogs for more comprehensive news about OA in the next weeks. I'll be back on the job at the end of the month.

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.
