(A Comparative Study Of Federal University Of Technology And Imo State Uiniversity Both Of Owerri)
Most librarians has been selecting and acquiring library materials, including the unpublished literatures without knowing the terms generally used for them.
this research project therefore has been carried out to create awareness to some librarians and staff of the library on what we called “grey literature”. This term is not familiar with most librarians but this project will educated them on the term.
The research work (project) is based on the polytechnics requirement of the award of Higher National Diploma (HND), it is therefore critically examined and carefully studied the above topic.
This project covers all one needs to know about grey literature, its meaning, its characteristics, advantages and role, its types, its acquisition channels, its cataloguing procedure, and challenges encountered in its acquisition.
Librarianship students will also find this work very useful because it will help to widen their knowledge horizon in using library terms.
