The July issue of CURLnews reports that on May 14 the CURLTask force on the Research Libraries Network finished the first draft of a CURL position paper identifying "areas of CURL activity that might have synergy with the goals of the RLN. These areas include...open access repositories." Apparently the draft is not yet available to the public.

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.
