Paul M. Ness, Paul D. Mintz, and Sherri Frank, Transfusion's public access policy, Transfusion, November 2005. An editorial. Not even an abstract is free online, at least so far.
(PS: Without access even to an abstract, I can only guess that this editorial outlines Transfusion's policy on NIH-funded authors. Transfusion is the journal of the American Association of Blood Banks, published by Blackwell.)

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.
