Information overload, information loss, information-on-demand are among just a few of the many factors confronting information professionals, practitioners, and net-users on a daily basis. To a great extent, grey literature is the cause of all this. For the past two decades grey literature has grown exponentially in relation to commercially published literature. The grey literature community realizes that while the challenges faced at the First International Conference on Grey Literature in 1993 may not have all been resolved, solutions today lay in a whole new order, on yet another scale and magnitude than ever before. GL10 sought to address the challenges to grey literature that still remain, while dealing with even newer challenges and an infrastructure that can effectively integrate all. The conference title ‘Designing the Grey Grid for Information Society’ invokes an infrastructure, which must take into account social, political, and organizational factors. For these also impact system- to-system performance when dealing with the scale and diversity of information, data, document types, collections, and subject areas linked to grey literature. As such, interoperability becomes de facto a requirement in the design of the grey grid i.e. an infrastructure that can model and withstand the test of an ever changing Information Society. On behalf of the Conference Sponsors, the Program Committee and Chairpersons, I would like to thank the authors and co-authors for their content contributions to these proceedings. Likewise, I welcome those reading these conference proceedings to voice their comments and/or recommendations either directly to the authors or to GreyNet, Grey Literature Network Service. Finally, I would like to bring to your attention the recent GL11 Call for Papers, the Eleventh International Conference on Grey Literature, which will be held in The Library of Congress on December 14-15, 2009.

  • 1 from Opensigle to Opengrey Changes and Continuity
    From OpenSIGLE to OpenGrey Changes and Continuity Christiane Stock and Nathalie Henrot (INIST-CNRS) First presented at the GL81 conference in New Orleans 2006 as a prototype, OpenSIGLE went life in December 2007. After three years of existence, the results are beyond all expectations. OpenSIGLE has become a reference source for grey literature, and its user community has grown constantly, especially from outside Europe. The integration of the GL conference preprints into the repository from 2008 onwards not only added research papers on the topic of grey literature to its contents, but also permitted OpenSIGLE to be accepted in the “Directory of Open Access Repositories” (OpenDOAR*). In spite of the success of OpenSIGLE it’s not wise to rest on one’s laurels. The change of name to “OpenGrey” signifies a shift in the content of the repository as well as in its physical appearance. Besides providing a new look and a more convenient technological environment, OpenGrey closes the gap between the close of the SIGLE* database and today, including recent records and links to the full text. The paper presents the new website which includes numerous facilities requested by users such as OAI-PMH*, the possibility to export records and an improved access to the document itself. OpenGrey also takes into account a changed user behaviour, where visitors arrive after searching Google or Google Scholar* and want all relevant information at a glance. The paper further explains input procedures and gives other information for the ongoing updates of the repository. Finally we call former SIGLE members and new partners to contribute to OpenGrey.

From SIGLE to OpenSIGLE and Beyond: An In-depth Look at Resource Migration in the European Context Schöpfel, Joachim; Stock, Christiane & Henrot, Nathalie (INIST-CNRS, France) Abstract: In 1980, some major European scientific information centres established the “System for Information on Grey Literature in Europe” (SIGLE) to provide access to European grey literature and to improve bibliographic coverage. August 23, 2006, the Luxemburg Register of Commerce and Societies published the liquidation of the association EAGLE that produced the SIGLE database until 2005. Nevertheless, the former EAGLE member consented to preserve the European co-operation for grey literature and to transform the 1980 model into a sustainable network in the emerging environment of open access to scientific information.

  • Opengrey = New Opensigle
    OpenGrey = new OpenSIGLE Petra PEJŠOVÁ National technical Library, Prague [email protected] Christiane STOCK INIST-CNRS, Nancy, France [email protected] INFORUM 2012: 18. Conference on Professional Informational Resources Prague, 22. - 24. 5. 2012 Abstract OpenGrey is a unique repository providing open access to European grey literature references, the result of 25 years of cooperation. OpenGrey is based on the OpenSIGLE/SIGLE database which contains almost 700 thousand records of grey literature. As a multidisciplinary database it covers Science, Technology, Biomedical Science, Economics, Social Science and Humanities. This paper presents new search functionality, design and vision. The cooperation with GreyNet on GL conference preprints will also be mentioned. OpenGrey usage data and feedback information support our advocacy for more grey literature in repositories. Cooperation example will be shown in the National Repository of Grey Literature in the Czech Republic. OpenGrey is European database of grey literature, based on the OpenSIGLE/SIGLE database. When we look into more than thirty-year history it started as a unique European database of bibliographic records in grey literature SIGLE (System for Information on Grey Literature in Europe). SIGLE was created and maintained between 1980 and 2005 by initially seven and in the end fifteen members of the European Union, represented by major libraries and research organizations. (Stock, 2011) These representatives formed for this purpose non- profit network called EAGLE (European Association for Grey Literature Exploitation). SIGLE contents covered all scientific disciplines (pure and applied science and technology, economics, social sciences and humanities). As a commercial product, SIGLE was distributed through subscription to hosts, e.g.

  • Bringing Light to Grey
    WorldWideScience.org: Bringing Light to Grey Brian A. Hitson and Lorrie A. Johnson Office of Scientific and Technical Information U.S. Department of Energy Abstract WorldWideScience.org 1 and its governance structure, the WorldWideScience Alliance2 , are putting a brighter spotlight on grey literature. Through this new tool, grey literature is getting broader exposure to audiences all over the world. Improved access to and sharing of research information is the key to accelerating progress and breakthroughs in any field, especially science. WorldWideScience.org has revolutionized access to “deep” web scientific databases. These nationally­ and internationally­sponsored databases are comprised of both grey and conventional literature. Consequently, because grey literature is naturally less familiar (and, hence, less accessible) than conventional literature, it receives a disproportionate benefit in terms of usage through its exposure in WorldWideScience.org. Before expanding on the mechanics and contents of WorldWideScience vis­à­vis grey literature, it is helpful to characterize what is meant by “grey literature.” The term “Grey Literature” can be defined in several ways. Wikipedia 3, for example, describes grey literature as “…a body of materials that cannot be found easily through conventional channels such as publishers…” The National Library of Australia 4 provides a slight variation: “…information that is not searchable or accessible through conventional search engines or subject directories and is not generally produced by commercial publishing organizations.” This description goes further to describe electronic grey literature as constituting the “hidden” or “deep” web. Most laypeople, those outside the professional information community, would think of the color “grey” and may be puzzled as to why a color is used to describe literature.

  • International Conference of Animal Health Information Specialists) Papers
    Getting it all together: building an institutional repository collection of ICAHIS (International Conference of Animal Health Information Specialists) papers Vicki F. Croft, Head, Animal Health Library, Washington State University, Pullman, WA USA Kay E. Vyhnanek, Scholarly Communication Librarian, Washington State University, Pullman, WA USA Abstract: Since its first meeting in 1992, the International Conference of Animal Health Information Specialists (ICAHIS) has generated a large collection of informative papers, largely inaccessible even in this age of Internet access. Development of the Washington State University (WSU) Libraries’ institutional repository, the WSU Research Exchange, is a venue to provide accessibility and permanence. Working together, Vicki Croft, Head Librarian of Washington State University’s Animal Health Library, and Kay Vyhnanek, Scholarly Communication Librarian at WSU, began a project to create a Web-based collection of papers from all five ICAHIS meetings. This presentation will give descriptions of the design and planning, the process and procedures for obtaining copyright permissions from the authors, the methods employed in capturing and/or creating digital images of the papers, the creation of the metadata representing the papers, and posting the papers to the Research Exchange. The use of the collection as the basis for an ICAHIS website, the value of using the repository for this purpose, and a summary of data on access to the papers will also be presented. Introduction: The first International Conference of Animal Health Information Specialists, which was held in Reading, England in 1992, brought together for the first time veterinary and animal health libraries worldwide. This first conference was organized by a small group of librarians, working closely with the Medical Library Association’s Veterinary Medical Libraries Section, with a grant from the U.

  • Metagrey Europe, a Proposal in the Aftermath of EAGLE- SIGLE
    MetaGrey Europe, A Proposal in the Aftermath of EAGLE- SIGLE Schöpfel, J. Bionote: Joachim Schöpfel graduated from the University of Hamburg in 1984. A research assistant and lecturer at the University of Hamburg, Department of Developmental and Educational Psychology, from 1985 to 1990, he obtained his Ph.D. from the same university in 1992. He is head of the e-publishing and document supply department at INIST-CNRS and teaches Culture and Society (1992-2001) and Documentation (from 2001 on) at the University of Nancy. He is member of the UK Serials Group and last president of EAGLE. Contact address: Dr. Joachim Schöpfel, INIST-CNRS, 2 allée du Parc de Brabois, 54514 Vandoeuvre Cedex, France. E-Mail [email protected] Abstract In the aftermath of EAGLE, the objective of the MetaGrey Europe project is to organize a new network of European leading organisations for the collection and dissemination of grey research literature, to facilitate the access to European grey literature through a unique web- interface (metasearch engine), to increase its international visibility and to safeguard the former SIGLE records and integrate them in the new network in an OAI-PMH compliant format. The communication describes the project scope, assesses the resources, contains a risk analysis and an outline of costs and benefits and provides information about project management, communication strategy and planning. Introduction 2005 is a crucial year for the European grey literature*. The EAGLE* concept doesn’t work any longer. The input to the SIGLE* database definitely stopped in April, and the EAGLE association is to be liquidated. EAGLE was a co-operative network for identification, location and supply of grey research literature.

  • Opensigle - Crossroads for Libraries, Research and Educational Institutions in the Field of Grey Literature
    Chapter 9 OpenSIGLE - Crossroads for Libraries, Research and Educational Institutions in the Field of Grey Literature Dominic J. Farace and Jerry Frantzen, Grey1et International, 1etherlands Christiane Stock and 1athalie Henrot, I1IST-C1RS, France Joachim Schöpfel, University of Lille 3, France 9.1 Introduction This chapter is based on a paper1 presented at the Tenth International Conference on Grey Literature (GL10) in which GreyNet’s collections of conference preprints were made accessible via the OpenSIGLE Repository. OpenSIGLE offers a unique distribution channel for European grey literature with roots dating back a quarter century. In the first part of the chapter, the experience of INIST as service provider and GreyNet as data provider will be discussed including recent devel- opments. Later in the chapter, the draft of a project proposal called for in the final ses- sion of that conference will be elaborated. The proposal seeks to explore the ca- pacity required for the OpenSIGLE Repository to develop in multilateral and international cooperation in support of European research infrastructures commit- ted to the open access of grey literature collections and resources. Emphasis is placed on the involvement of libraries, research centers, and institutions of higher education, as well as, requirements for a grey literature network service to sustain further development, exploitation, and promotion of the OpenSIGLE Repository. 9.2 From SIGLE to OpenSIGLE: A Progress Report SIGLE (System for Information on Grey Literature in Europe) was a unique mul- tidisciplinary database dedicated to grey literature.
