Remember the story of Jim Lindgren's article from the Yale Law Journal (print circulation 3,300) that was downloaded over 82,000 times when put free online? The experience has so impressed the journal that it will apparently offer open access to all its future articles. (PS: Can anyone confirm this?) (Thanks to Glenn Reynolds via Ben Finkelstein.)

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.
