Les Grivell, Access for all?EMBO Reports 5, 222-225 (2004). Grivel considers the OA movement, giving weight to questions of whether changes to copyright law would harm the scientific enterprise, why OA journals have not yet become as cited and established as their toll counterparts, what may hinder authors to self-archive, and whether the movement to OA will be more gradual than proponents urge.

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.
