Paula Hane, Project Gutenberg Progresses, Information Today 21(5), 28 (May 2004). Hane reviews Project Gutenberg's growth from being the first "e-book" publisher in the early 1970s to hosting an online library of more than 10,000 freely available books today. The publisher aims to have one million books available by 2015. Gutenberg also features an RSS feed listing new additions and a selection of audio titles and electronic editions of sheet music.

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.
