Who is this workshop for?

This workshop is for students at all levels who need to find grey literature, that is, material that is not formally published and which is therefore more difficult to find. This includes technical reports, patents, standards, theses and dissertations, and parliamentary material. The session also looks at finding open access (free to access) material.

The session will be practical and there will be plenty of opportunity to try out the sources of information that are covered.

What will it cover?
