Simson Garfinkel, MIT's DSpace Explained, MIT Technology Review, July 2005. The title is misleading. Garfinkel gives more space to his failure to find a paper in DSpace than to an explanation of what it is. He doesn't mention that DSpace is open-access, open-source, or OAI-compliant (interoperable).

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.
