The second national Where is the evidence conference on the role of grey literature in policy and practice will be held at the State Library of Victoria in Melbourne on Monday 11 November 2013. This year the conference will explore issues around the value of grey literature - for research, policy, health, industry and many other sectors. And how we can calculate and measure that value.
Does your organisation PRODUCE or COLLECT policy reports and papers?
We need to hear from you!
While knowledge of how people use evidence for policy making has grown in the last few years, little is known about its production and to what extent it is collected and managed.
Earlybird registration is now open for the 2nd Australian Grey Literature Conference : Recognising the Value of Grey Literature.
The conference will be held in Melbourne at the State Library of Victoria on Monday 11th November 2013 from 8.30am - 5.00pm.
Speakers include international keynote speaker, Keith Jeffery from the UK, Australian grey literature researchers, information professionals and government policy makers. The afternoon session will include Conversation Cafe style workshops focussing on grey literature topic areas such as Health and Government Policy.
Do you use government reports, academic working papers, discussion papers, etc for your work? If so we'd love to hear from you so we can find ways to improve their access and use - and save you time and effort.
