Communicating the value of international grey literature: the Aquatic Sciences & Fisheries Abstracts (ASFA) experience

In collaboration with its partners, FAO Aquatic Sciences and Fisheries Abstracts (ASFA) has worked across multiple platforms to raise awareness and understanding of the effective promotion of grey literature to the managers and users of this valuable information source. This book chapter presents the outreach activities, promotional materials, and training sessions that have been successfully implemented to achieve this aim, and reflects on both successes and areas where improvements are yet to be made.
