The Paris Review has launched an open-access project, The DNA of Literature. From the web site: 'The Paris Review has interviewed almost 300 authors whose work has defined the literary landscape of latter half of the twentieth century. From its first interview with E.M. Forster, the Writers at Work series has, in the words of The New York Times, "set the standard for literary interrogation." Now the Paris Review Foundation proposes to make this vast archival resource --what has felicitously been referred to as the DNA of Literature-- available online, for free, to anyone who visits the Paris Review website.' The first installment was put online yesterday. (Thanks to Michal Cohen.)

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.
