摘要

摘要灰色文献被认为是事实和最新信息的重要来源,但在实证研究中却经常被忽视。这是首次在巴基斯坦背景下对灰色文献、其获取、使用、管理以及学术图书馆面临的问题进行研究。采用自行开发的调查问卷,从旁遮普省和巴基斯坦首都伊斯兰堡的大学图书馆工作的74名受访者(每所大学一名受访者,最好是连续图书管理员或负责人)中收集数据。只有一名图书馆和信息科学(LIS)专业人员参与了藏品开发过程/部门。研究结果显示,学术图书馆访问的灰色文献主要有三种类型:论文/学位论文、年度报告和目录。作为上级组织政策的后续行动,图书馆可以访问这些论文/学位论文。灰色文献被单独地放在图书馆的显眼位置;然而,由于缺乏适当的灰色文献收藏发展政策,随之而来的是预算限制和缺乏意识,这成为了学术图书馆的主要问题。t检验结果揭示了图书馆对各种类型的灰色文献的需求,也突出了图书馆社区对各种类型灰色文献的认识。研究结果有助于高校主管部门、高校图书馆和图书馆工作人员更好地管理灰色文献,增加灰色文献在学术写作中的使用。

Gray Literature and Academic Libraries: How Do They Access, Use, Manage, and Cope with Gray Literature
Abstract Gray literature is considered an important source of factual and up-to-date information however it is often neglected doing empirical research. It is first study in context of Pakistan that explores gray literature, its access, usage, management and issues faced by academic libraries. A self-developed questionnaire was employed to collect data from a total of 74 respondents (one respondent from each university preferably serial librarian or in charge) working in university libraries of Punjab Province and Islamabad (the capital city) Pakistan. Only one and concerned library and information science (LIS) professional involved in collection development process/department was approached. The findings of the study revealed that three major types of gray literature accessed by academic libraries were theses/dissertations, annual reports and catalogues. The theses/dissertations are accessed by libraries as a follow-up of parent organizational policy. The gray literature is shelved separately and prominently in the libraries; however, non-availability of proper collection development policy for gray literature emerged as major issue in academic libraries followed by budgetary constraints and lack of awareness. The t-test result revealed the need of various types of gray literature in libraries and also highlights creating awareness of various types of gray literature among the library community. The finding of the study is the helpful for university authorities, academic libraries and working library professionals to manage gray literature in a better way and increase the usage of gray literature in academic writing.
