The speed at which rate of scholarly information is increasing is frenetic. Catalyzing this astonishing growth are the technological developments. The dream of a researcher to have free, instant access to peer reviewed papers and data, is now a possibility, all thanks to the process of author self-archiving. To archive especially the research works in institutional repositories has been possible due to the movement called Open Access. This paper takes a brief look at the development of the movement and a parametric study of some of the best-known archives in the scholarly world.Keywords
Scholarly Information, Research Worker, Information Access, Peer Reviewed Papers, Authors Self Archiving, Open Access.

Reviews the various definitions of information and proposes that it has a physical, linguistic and cognitive manifestations. The changing landscape of information studies and the factors that contributing to this are examined. The origins and development of library education in USA, UK and India are briefly mentioned. The changing nature of the information profession in terms of the various job titles that information professionals can fit into is reviewed. Briefly reviews the i-school movement, and suggests that i-schools are the way forward.Keywords
