Old news but good news if you hadn't already heard it. :) ACL has always had relatively open publication policies; the anthology has been online for years, and even when there was a print version of CL the articles were online too (maybe with an embargo of a month or two, but you could also go to the authors' websites and grab the PDF there).

I was in for a big shock when I realised that non-NLP papers (i.e. those published through ACM) were hard to find online and often required payment---all through grad school I just looked up everything I needed online (for free). It felt like a big step into the stone age when I had to start dealing with ACM policies.

I wish I had had this 10 years ago when I worked in the field.

Fantastic!

Yup. ACL Anthology is a big compendium of many journals and conference proceedings in Computational Linguistics and NLP. Getting CL as an open access is great too, though most libraries had their subscriptions.
