QUT’s OAK Law Project has developed a web-enabled database containing information about publishing agreements and publishers’ open access policies and practices. It is designed to facilitate greater access to research, especially that which is publicly funded.
The launch of the OAKList on Thursday, 7 February 2008, went fantastically. John Wilbanks, Executive Director of Science Commons, did a great presentation on the development of open access and brought the OAKList to life with the push of a button.
The URL for the OAKList is www.oaklist.qut.edu.au.
More information on the launch is available here.
