- Title
Toward a Definition of Grey Legal Literature.
- Authors
Rucinski, Taryn L.
- Abstract
Like the playwright Moliere whose character M. Jourdain marveled that for more than forty years he had been speaking prose without knowing it,1 lawyers, judges, law librarians, and law students alike have been using and citing grey literature in all its forms for years without recognizing it. From litigation documents, to administrative materials, to websites and more, the legal field is replete with information resources that justify the creation of a distinct group of grey legal literature that should be considered, if not taught, alongside the traditional primary and secondary legal sources.2 However, before we can consider the emergence of a distinct information resource group known as grey legal literature, it is helpful to examine the existing role of grey literature in the legal community.
