Danny Sullivan can't believe the media distortions of Google Print and sets out, once again, to clarify the difference between Google Library and Google Publisher. If you're reading OAN, you probably don't need it. But I strongly recommend it for the confused, especially for authors and publishers willing to do some fact-checking before they publish critiques of Google Library that miss the target, embarrass themselves, and create further confusion.

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.
