Abstract

Think tank grey literature can be used for teaching and research in policy-oriented courses, but because much of this content is scattered throughout the far reaches of cyberspace, students and many faculty may not know how to go about finding it. At the same time, think tanks need to find new and creative ways to push their content out and capture new audiences. This article will assess the value of aggregating grey literature on JSTOR for both researchers and think tanks, briefly touch upon the advantages of comprehensive searching on our platform, and then take a detailed look at how we make this content discoverable through the application of rich metadata.
