A letter of mine, written in response to an article in the Canadian publication University Affairs, was self-archived (via a Kepler "archivelet") on June 13, 2002. The letter was published (with some typographical errors in the URLs!) in the June/July issue of University Affairs, but the published version isn't available online. The self-archived version includes a link to archives which contain the original article (the article is available online, as a PDF file). I've found that the letter has now been cached by the Google search engine. So, it took Google less than 2 months to find the self-archived version of the letter.

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.
