The University of Strathclyde Centre for Digital Library Research has launched SAPIENS, an ejournal portal and publishing platform. "SAPIENS" is an acronym for Scottish Academic Periodicals Implementing an Effective Networked Service. From the web site: "The SAPIENS service provides online access to a number of Scottish academic and cultural periodicals. SAPIENS delivers a range of publications using a variety of business models. For this reason the service offers a mix of access controlled and open access publications."

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.
