The Open Access Scholarly Information Sourcebook (OASIS) is being
launched at the 13th International Conference on Electronic
Publishing (ELPUB2009), taking place in Milan, Italy from June 10-12.
OASIS aims to provide an authoritative sourcebook on Open Access
covering the concept, principles, advantages, approaches and means to
achieving it. The site highlights developments and initiatives from
around the world, with links to diverse additional resources and case
studies. As such, it is a community-building as much as a
resource-building exercise. Users are encouraged to share and
download the resources provided, and to modify and customize them for
local use.
