Grey Literature


There is a new mailing list devoted to MARC records and full-text online documents for "grey literature" (e.g., technical reports, conference proceedings, etc.). Often online versions of these documents exist, but there are no catalog records. This group will also assist librarians and researchers in locating alternative sites for full-text versions for these online resources.
