Abstrakt: The existence of grey literature can be viewed as a communication process that takes place between the corporate author and the user. Reports on a study which looks at grey literature as a text (a message) and which relates its reading to the prevalence of extensive genres, the strengthening of reading without buying books, and the occurrence of electronic texts. States that readers' needs and the special features of grey literature must be emphasized in the organization of meta-databases. Points out that the framework of the description of various types of documents is the MARC format, and that Dublin Core and eXtensible Markup Language (XML)-based technology offer themselves as new methods.
