The goal of this project is to improve access to social sciences grey literature produced in Latin America by research institutes, non-governmental organizations, and peripheral agencies. It encompasses working documents, pre-prints, research papers, statistical documents, and other difficult-to-access materials that are not controlled by commercial publishers. Using the Open Archives Initiative Protocol for Metadata Harvesting (OAI-PMH), the portal will make these valuable research resources accessible in digital repositories.
