Abstract
The aim of this study was to investigate the management of grey literature in academic libraries in the Eastern Cape with special reference to the Howard Pim Library of Africana. The study intended to achieve the following objectives: describing to what extent is GL being acquired at UFH' s Howard Pim library; describing how the processing of GL is being done; explaining how access to GL is facilitated; assessing the preservation of the GL; explaining the importance of GL in research; determining how GL is shared among academic libraries within SEALS; and establishing challenges faced by the integration of GL in the SEALS consortium, all of which spring from a premise of how GL could be managed in academic libraries in the Eastern Cape.
