The Chronicle of Higher Education will host an online colloquy on Fair Use and Academic Publishing tomorrow, July 14, at 1:00 pm Eastern time. The guest expert will be Wendy Seltzer, an attorney for the Electronic Frontier Foundation and fellow at Harvard's Berkman Center for Internet and Society. Seltzer will answer questions about fair use from members of the public. Participants can wait until tomorrow at 1:00 or submit their questions in advance. Afterwards the Chronicle will post an OA transcript of the colloquy.
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.
