The Grey Lit Café

Interview with Sarah Bonato: Searching the grey literature

Anthony Haynes

Our guest, Sarah Bonato, is Librarian at the Centre for Addiction and Mental Health.

In this interview, we explore the story behind, and need for, Sarahs' book, Searching the grey literature.

We ask, what are the key messages for readers and consumers of grey literature and for librarians and information professionals?

Finally, we consider how the role of grey literature changed during the coronavirus pandemic.
