The term "grey literature" describes information sources that have been produced outside of the traditional publishing and distribution channels used by academic books and journals. Examples include conference proceedings, theses and dissertations, government reports, census data, white papers, working papers, newsletters, technical reports, and patents. These sources are usually not peer-reviewed but can still be valuable to your research as they often cover current and emerging research and are a good source for raw data, statistics, and policies.
