This document discusses open access (OA) in scholarly communication and the relationship between OA, information and communication technology (ICT), and policy. It notes that while OA has spread as a concept, significant challenges remain regarding global copyright, infrastructure development, and coordination between stakeholders. The document suggests two views on advancing OA - focusing first on added-value services for scholars or first on developing global ICT infrastructure through joint efforts of technical and policy groups.
