The next #UKmedlibs chat will take place at 12.30 on Tuesday 21st February. Join us for an interactive discussion exploring the use of grey literature in the health library service. We will be joined by colleagues from the Kings Fund, so this is your opportunity to get involved in the conversation, ask questions, share ideas and experiences and see if grey literature could be more of an asset to your searches.
The questions we will follow are:
- How would you define grey literature and what does it mean for health library staff?
- Do you include grey literature in your clinical and non-clinical searches? If not, can you tell us why?
- What benefits have you found from including grey literature?
- Do you alter your search strategies at all for grey literature searches?
- Which are the best online sources of grey literature?
- Do you use Google scholar or different search engines?
- Would you encourage our library users to include grey literature in their searches?
Bring your lunch and come and join us for an informal but very interesting chat!
