I've recently heard several speakers address the topic of programmes
designated to bring high quality, peer-reviewed journals for free or
very cheaply to developing nations. Detail of a website listing these
are given below.

Because of the interest of a number of liblicense-l readers -- and,
obviously, the very worthwhile nature of the programs -- we have added a
"branch" called "Developing Nations Initiatives" to the LIBLICENSE web
site. View this fledgling space at:
http://www.library.yale.edu/~llicense/develop.shtml
There you will find the beginnings of a list of such initiatives, with
links to sites, where available.
We welcome additional information either about the programs that are
listed or ones you know about, so that we may keep the listing accurate
and up to date. We'll invent the rules as we go and will err on the side
of inclusion.
Please let us hear from you.
Sincerely, Ann Okerson
liblicense-l moderator & LIBLICENSE web site owner
