I welcome you all in this Group on Open Access and Digital Libraries. I hope together we would be able to promote Open Access philosophy and provide a forum to support and build Digital Libraries which are accessible openly to all humankind.
To start with let us share our experiences in building Digital Libraries as such and problems faced if any.

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.
