The January 19 issue of Open Access Now is now online. This issue contains an editorial on open access in 2003, a group interview with three British journalists on how OA is affecting mainstream media, news stories on the inquiry in the UK House of Commons and the new PubMed Central policy to offer OA to individual articles from journals that do not otherwise participate in PMC, and a profile of HINARI.

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.
I recommend the OA tracking project (OATP) as the best way to stay on top of new OA developments. You can read the OATP feed on a blog-like web page or subscribe to it by RSS, email, or Twitter. You can also help build the feed by tagging new developments you encounter.
