We're starting to see the reappearance of public versions of written testimony for the inquiry into journal prices and accessibility conducted by the UK House of Commons Science and Technology Committee. Many of these submissions were initially put online and then taken off at the committee's request. Now that two sessions of oral testimony are completed, the committee is allowing the submissions to go back online. Here are the ones I know about so far.
For other written submissions, see my list in SOAN for 3/2/04. For now, I'm only blogging links to submissions that were missing from the SOAN list or dead at the time.

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.
