Grey literature includes reports and other research which are not formally published as either books or journal articles. Before the web, this material was considered "grey" because typically they were hard to find. Now these reports by think tanks, lobbying organizations and government agencies are increasingly found on the web. In addition, the term "grey" is also applied to this literature because it has not been reviewed or vetted by scholars in the field.
Think Tanks
Working Papers: Works in progress. They are often the result of ongoing research and are published to seek comments by others in the field. This type of publication has not been peer reviewed.
