Summary Over the last decade the open access (OA) publishing model has secured itself as an integral part of the biomedical publishing landscape. One of the key benefits of OA is the removal of subscription barriers to published research - this is especially true for communities that would like to increase the international visibility for their research output and/or have limited access to a full range of scholarly journals. BioMed Central is taking a lead role in raising awareness of the advantages of OA and making OA an affordable publishing option. [We are also working with a partner company to help authors who are not native English speakers ensure their manuscripts are suitable for submission to an international journal].

Furthermore, as a growing number of funding agencies introduce OA mandates, it is becoming increasingly important for researchers and institutions to comply with these policies. This presentation will summarise the different routes to achieving open access and give an overview of recent progress and developments in OA publishing.
