ALPSP has announced the ALPSP Awards for 2003. Open-access publications did very well. The award for Publishing Innovation went to The AfCS - Nature Signaling Gateway, the open-access experiment from Nature. All four nominees on the shortlist for this award were also open access. The award for Service to Not-for-Profit Publishing went to HighWire Press, Stanford's publishing-portal for society journals, including a large number of open-access journals. Some of the ALPSP awards, such as Ann Okerson's for Services to Publisher/Library Relations, were announced in August as part of the Charleston Advisor Reader's Choice Awards.

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.
