The Texas Digital Library (TDL), announced last July, is now online. (Thanks to Adrian Ho.) TDL is a consortial OA repository for five Texas universities: Rice, Texas A&M, Texas Tech, the University of Houston, and the University of Texas. From the site: "The Texas Digital Library will serve as a repository for research output including electronic theses and dissertations, faculty datasets, departmental databases, digital archives, course management and learning materials, digital media, and special collections."

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.
