The November issue of Walt Crawford's Cites & Insights is now online. This issue has major sections on Scholarly Article Access and Copyright Currents. In the Access section Walt reviews, often favorably, a wide swath of the recent literature on open access, including pieces by Declan Butler, Susan Owens, Stephen Pinfield and Hamish James, Robert Parks, Samuel Trosow, Catherine Zandonella, and me.

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.
