Open Access Week - and - How Open Is It?

Open Access Week is 22-28 October 2012. The main website listing events, publicity etc. is at http://www.openaccessweek.org/
Another resource I just saw tweeted by Lyn Parker is How Open Is It , a guide (in several languages) to help judge the extent to which an item is "open access". The guide is short and has a spectrum of open-ness for key elements (e.g. reader rights, re-use rights). It can be downloaded at http://www.plos.org/about/open-access/howopenisit/
I might as well mention Lyn's Copyright Compliance Scoopit, too: http://www.scoop.it/t/copyright-compliance
