Update. The article is now (7/2/04) OA at the same URL. Perhaps it was just embargoed for a day. Excerpt: "With Pediatrics' current business model, all electronic articles are freely available after a year and some are freely available immediately. Also, beginning this month, Pediatrics will experiment with allowing authors to decide if they want their article to be published online for free. If an author chooses this free option, the only 'cost' to the author will be that the article won't appear in the print journal." (PS: This is a new OA option. When other journals offer OA by the article, at the author's choice, they charge a processing fee. Pediatrics' has the plus of no fee and the minus of no publication in the print edition. Definitely worth watching.)

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.
