Walt Crawford, writer/editor, Mountain View, California. waltcrawford@gmail.com

Director/managing editor, [http://pln.palinet.org PALINET Leadership Network]--which includes a growing cluster of articles on open access.

Involvement with open access:
*Periodic articles on library access to scholarship in [http://citesandinsights.info/ ''Cites & Insights''] (which would be gold OA if it was scholarly, but it isn't scholarly)
*"Research" on early free ejournals--those that began prior to 1995--resulting in two essays in ''Cites & Insights'', one of which was republished by ''Learned Publishing'' (April 2002, "Free electronic refereed journals") (These manuscripts have been submitted for possible reworking into an OAD list.)
*Speech on open access, "Is free too expensive?," at the 2004 Charleston Conference.

Peter Suber has called me an "open access independent." I can live with that. (Stevan Harnad has called me much worse, and I can live with that too.)

My intention here is to correct typographical errors as I encounter them--and, of course, to publicize OAD as feasible.
