The International Federation of Library Associations and Associations (IFLA) and the International Publishers Association (IPA) have issued a joint Statement on Freedom of Expression. (PS: The statement was adopted on August 22, but for some reason the press release was delayed until October 9. Moreover, this statement is similar to, but different from, a statement issued by the same organizations, in the same week, in the same city, The Glasgow Declaration on Libraries, Information Services, and Intellectual Freedom.)

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.
