The mission statement of the Berlin 11 conference is available online now:
“During the Berlin 11 Open Access Conference, the Max Planck Society presented a draft mission statement and asked the participants for their comments. The mission statement will be used as a guideline for future activities of the Max Planck Society towards the goals mentioned in the Berlin Declaration a decade ago.”

The Edition Open Access is a publication of the Max Planck Research Library for the History and Development of Knowledge. The Max Planck Research Library for the History and Development of Knowledge comprises three subseries, Studies, Essays and Sources. They present research results and the relevant sources in a new format, combining the advantages of traditional publications and the digital medium. The volumes are available both as printed books and as online open access publications. They present original scientific work submitted under the scholarly responsibility of members of the Scientific Board and their academic peers.
SCOAP3 (Sponsoring Consortium for Open Access Publishing in Particle Physics)
