One of the really important aspects of open access publishing is making the articles easy to find, read and cite. After all, the whole point of academic publishing is that the articles actually be read (contra, say, the oft-repeated line that publications are necessary for promotion and tenure, etc.). So this is good news: the Directory of Open Access Journals (DOAJ) has now ingested the full metadata from the Public Library of Science (PLoS) - a total of 182,500 articles at the moment, with aggregation of new articles taking place daily. A tip of the hat to DOAJ.
