Open Access Directory (OAD) Wiki Now Online

Those interested in open access publishing can create and maintain simple factual lists about the open access movement in science and scholarship with the Open Access Directory (OAD) wiki, created by Peter Suber and Robin Peek. Suber is a Research Professor of Philosophy at Earlham College, and Peek is an Associate Professor of Library and Information Science at Simmons College. They conceived the project in order to collect OA-related lists for one-stop reference and searching.

The wiki started operating with about half a dozen lists such as-- conferences devoted to open access, discussion forums devoted to open access, and journal "declarations of independence"-- and has now grown to include...
* Acronyms
* Blogs about OA
* Disciplinary repositories
* Discussion forums
* Events
* Free and open-source journal management software
* Free and open-source repository software
* Guides for OA journal publishers
* Institutions that support open access
* Jobs in open access

* OA by the numbers
* OA speakers bureau
* Proposed lists.
* Research in progress
