The Yale Information Society Project is sponsoring a writing competition in connection with its Conference on Access to Knowledge

Authors of the top three submissions will be invited to present their papers at the conference and to publish them in a special issue of the International Journal of Communications Law & Policy devoted to Access to Knowledge. The submission deadline is February 15, 2006.

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.
