	Open Access
		OPEN ACCESS allows a fire alarm signal to be transmitted electronically to the fire department's computer aided dispatch system as it simultaneously reaches an alarm monitoring station.
		The one hospital with an OPEN ACCESS connection took 11 seconds from the time of alarm activation to receipt of alarm in the communications centre, and another 11 seconds for the dispatching of the fire trucks for a total of 22 seconds.
		The average of the OPEN ACCESS alarm reports to the communication centre was 13.5 seconds and the communication dispatcher process time averaged 12 seconds for a total of 25.5 seconds.

	C&EN: POINT-COUNTERPOINT - OPEN ACCESS
		Open access is therefore an extremely cost-inefficient way to deliver critical information to patients--and a strategy that may actually be detrimental, by providing an overwhelming volume of information that makes uncovering the few truly relevant clinical findings harder.
		Rather than open access, taxpaying breast cancer patients and their families would be better served by a targeted strategy of making the results of randomized clinical trials immediately available in a form patients can readily use.
		While open access will certainly be a part of the discussion, it is only one of many potential solutions, and likely not the most efficient or effective one for patient education and empowerment.

	Open access
		Open access is a concept in which articles are freely available to the public without subscription fees.
		This remains a matter of concern to many researchers, but some open access journals have now compiled respectable ISI impact factors, in some cases comparing favorably with their commercial counterparts, suggesting that open access journals are not inherently inferior.
		This is the model endorsed in the Washington DC Principles for Free Access to Science, a set of guidelines that issued by a group of 40 biomedical societies in March, 2004.

		In early 2002, an ARL task force recommended that the Association promote "open access to quality information in support of learning and scholarship." A key component of this effort is educating members of the research and academic communities about open access and its potential.
		Open access is concerned with scientific and research texts that scholars give to the community without expectation of direct monetary return, including peer-reviewed journal articles, preprints, preliminary findings, and data sets.
		While many proponents of OAI advocate open access, i.e., the free availability of works on the Internet, the fundamental technological framework and standards of the OAI are independent of the both the type of content offered and the economic models surrounding that content.

		The Open Access movement is at an early stage, and if the author-funded model is to be successful, widespread changes in funding conventions may be required, so that all authors have access to sufficient financial resources to pay for publication of their research.
		Under NAR's Open Access model, all users have unrestricted rights to re-use Open Access content for educational and research purposes; however, those wishing to re-use content for commercial purposes must continue to obtain permission from OUP as the original publisher, and pay the appropriate fee.
		Under the Open Access model, the Editors of the journal will not be involved in correspondence with authors regarding payment of publication charges for their article.

	Open Access Legal Scholarship - Paul L. Boley Law Library
		Philosopher and longtime open access advocate Peter Suber marks many of the key events in the growth of open access scholarship and publishing in his Timeline of the Open Access Movement.
		The two basic open access strategies are (1) self-archiving, in which scholars place their articles (pre-print or post-print) in freely accessible Internet-based archives; and (2) open access publishing, in which the journal publisher ensures permanent open access to its journal’s content.
		Open access has spread rapidly in the sciences, driven by the high cost of commercial publishers’; subscription rates.

	Open Access Archivangelism
		And recent studies have shown that the citation counts of articles that are freely available on the web (Open Access) are 25%-250% higher than the citation counts of articles that are only available to those researchers whose institutions can afford a subscription to the journal in which it was published.
		The Open Access (OA) citation advantage hence reduces to merely an "Early Access Advantage" in astronomy, because all postprints are accessible to everyone.
		Hence access to a small set of core journals is not a precondition for being an active researcher in many fields -- which does not mean that lacking that access does not weaken the research (and that is the point!).

		Open Access is a policy that could revolutionize the academic publishing world and have a great impact on research.
		Open Access can be achieved through a new model: the author or their institution pays the publishing costs and the publisher then makes the article available online free of charge.
		Open source, open content and open access are also the most tangible result of the shift towards eScience and digital networking.

		During the days of the slow, dial-up modem, the Internet--because it ran over telephone wires--was regulated by telephone's common-carrier rules: a network is required by law to be open to all communications traffic, and to treat all information in a fair and non-discriminatory fashion.
		But these rules that protected open access and the democratic architecture of the dial-up Internet do not apply to cable and satellite high-speed (broadband) Web access.
		And telecom companies are lobbying hard on Capitol Hill for deregulation to end their open access requirements.
