The judge presiding over the Google Books settlement has extended the deadline for objections and amicus briefs, previously scheduled for today, due to technical issues. The new deadline for submissions is Tuesday, September 8 at 10 am ET. The court's electronic filing system will be down for maintenance until Tuesday morning.

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.
