Brewster Kahle, The Open Library, October 19, 2005. A book-like vision statement for the Open Library and Open Content Alliance, on deposit with the other demo books in the Open Library itself. I'd post an excerpt from it but it's an image file that doesn't support cutting and pasting.

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.
