WAYS has often talked about increasing accessibility to journals. As PLoS and other journals have allowed free-access, other journals/publishers are also beginning to increase accessibility. Publishers are now enabling access to biomedical journals through "Health InterNetwork Access to Research Initiative (HINARI). (See: http://www.who.int/hinari/en/)
Still, in many areas, the lack of physical infrastructure supersedes these initiatives. Hopefully, this may come online in a sustainable manner in the near future.
