Around the Web: Research Works Act, Elsevier boycott & FRPAA (Updated!)

This post has superseded my two previous link collection posts here and here.

The first focused solely on the Research Works Act, the second added posts on the Elsevier boycott and this one also incorporates posts on the reintroduction of The Federal Research Public Access Act. These three stories are all intertwined to the extent that it is difficult to separate them out completely. That being said, I'm not attempting to be as comprehensive in coverage for the boycott or for FRPAA as for the RWA.

Some relevant general resources:

• The Cost of Knowledge: Researchers taking a stand against Elsevier (Boycott declaration site)
• Notes on the Research Works Act a wiki maintained by Peter Suber, hosted by the Berkman Center.
• Sample letter to Elsevier declining to review a paper.
• Oppose HR3699, the Research Works Act, a petition
• Research Works Act on Wikipedia
• Text of the Research Works Act, HR 3699 and it's legislative status.
• Elsevier Boycott section on Polymath wiki (by Michael Nielsen)
• Notes on the Federal Research Public Access Act at the Berkman Center site
• Social media sites about OA at the Open Access Directory
• GovTrack.us post on the new Federal Research Public Access Act, HR 4004, and S. 2096 in the Senate
• Fake Elsevier Online Store
• Cost of Knowledge blog
• SPARC FAQ for University Administrators and Faculty FRPAA 2012
• #IAmFakeElsevier Storify

It's worth noting that this post represents a massive update to the previous one. And I hope the next update won't be quite as massive nor a month away.

It's worth watching pretty well everthing Peter Suber is writing on this issue on Google+.

Of course, if I've missed any, please let me know in the comments. In particular, if there are any important posts or articles I've missed on the Elsevier boycott, please let me know. This has become a very large list. If I've doubled up on something or picked up something at a content scraper instead of the original location, please let me know so I can fix it.

For those that are interested, I'm using this Google Doc as a scratch file to hold links in between updates.

Update 2012.03.27. Update with a bunch of new posts and a few stragglers.
