Dear Colleagues
Durham submitted to RSLP, in collaboration with Exeter, a proposal to
develop a collaborative collection development policy for grey
literature of the Middle East, particularly statistical and other
government publications, in order to provide the basis for a
comprehensive distributed national collection for this highly
specialised material. The rationale for the proposal is the existence in
the two universities of specialist Documentation Units where appropriate
materials are brought together in one collection. In taking forward the
proposal to the second stage, we have been asked to include other
appropriate institutions. I am therefore asking if any other institution
holding this type of material would like to be included. Given the
timetable for full bids to be returned, an early reply would be
appreciated.
Many thanks.
John Hall
