Resources for Review for "New Products in Grey Literature"

  _ Resources for Review for  "New Products in Grey Literature"_
 
    I am greatly interested in recommendations of services, projects, and research that relate to the access, organization, and management of grey literature collections and resources as candidates for review in my column "New Products in Grey Literature" prepared for the _International Journal on Grey Literature_ (IJGL). The IJGL is a new electronic and print quarterly journal published by MCB University Press and is edited by Julia Gelfand, Applied Sciences Librarian at University of California, Irvine. The homepage for IJGL is http://www.mcb.co.uk/ijgl.htm. 

   The Table of Contents for the journal is located at 
http://www.emerald-library.com/cgi-bin/EMRbrowcite.cgi?recno=55&index=jt

    To date, two issues have been published, with the third issue
due later this month. For these I have prepared detailed reviews on "ResearchIndex: autonomous citation indexing on the Web", 
"Information Technology Road Maps: a bibliographic database pilot project" and "arXiv.org: The Los Alamos National Laboratory E-Print Server" . The latter is scheduled to be published in the third, forthcoming issue. For my next "New Products in Grey Literature" I am planning a review of the DOE PrePRINT Network [http://www.osti.gov/preprints/ ] 

  As Always, Any and All suggestions, recommendations, nominations, etc. will be Most Welcome!
