Publication of Open Access Bibliography: Liberating Scholarly Literature
with E-Prints and Open Access Journals

The open access movement is reforming the system of scholarly
communication by advocating free, online access to academic literature.
This new bibliography presents over 1,300 selected English-language books,
conference papers (including some digital video presentations), debates,
editorials, e-prints, journal and magazine articles, news articles,
technical reports, and other printed and electronic sources that are
useful in understanding the open access movement. Most sources were
published between 1999 and August 31, 2004; however a limited number of
key sources published prior to 1999 are also included. Where possible,
links are provided to sources that are freely available on the Internet
(approximately 78 percent of the bibliography's references have such
links). The bibliography is conveniently organized into the following
categories: General Works, Open Access Statements, Copyright Arrangements
for Self-Archiving and Use, Open Access Journals, E-Prints, Disciplinary
Archives, Institutional Archives and Repositories, Open Archives
Initiative and OAI-PMH, Conventional Publisher Perspectives, Government
Inquiries and Legislation, and Open Access Arrangements for Developing
Countries. The publication also includes a concise overview of key
concepts that are central to the open access movement.

The table of contents, preface, and overview of key open access concepts
from this publication are available online as a PDF at
