This guide contains links to resources relevant to some of the more commonly searched types of grey/gray literature in the health sciences: policy positions, reports, briefings, white papers, documents from professional organizations, and statistics (click here for a comprehensive list of grey literature document types). Grey/Gray Literature deals with the production, distribution, and access to multiple document types produced on all levels of government, academics, business, and organization in electronic and print formats, not controlled by commercial publishing.
