The Columbia Guide to Digital Publishing now has an online edition. It doesn't cover open-access publishing in particular but seems to cover every technical aspect of electronic publishing and therefore could be applied to open-access ventures. It isn't free, and isn't even close. One year of access costs $99.95. One day's worth goes for $6.95. However, many of its auxiliary features are free online, such as the table of contents, glossary, bibliography, and index. Judging from the freebies, the guide instantiates first-rate navigation and searching practices, which gives confidence in the content.

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.
