Philip Davis, Journal Cost-Effectiveness Tables and Graphs, a preprint, November 29, 2005. A visual presentation of the data collected by Ted Bergstrom and Preston McAfee for their web site on journal cost-effectiveness. From Davis' rationale: "The following tables and graphs focus on making comparisons between profit and non-profit publishers. The six largest publishers (Blackwell, Elsevier, Sage, Springer-Kluwer, Taylor & Francis and Wiley) are highlighted for comparison. This report does not advocate a particular position, nor does it necessarily represent the position of the author’s employer or institution. Feedback or suggestions for further analysis may be conveyed to the author by email at: pmd8 [at] cornell.edu."

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.
