Paper furnishes the holdings of grey literature in the libraries of the engineering colleges recognized for research by the VTU. The organization of the grey sources and the extent of its use are highlighted based on the responses sought from the working librarians and the users of grey literature. The users constitute the faculty engaged in supervising the doctoral research, and the research scholars who have registered for research work.. The importance of grey literature is established on the extent of demand and access in the higher range. The study also covers the opinions expressed by the faculty and researchers on the cooperation and assistance rendered by the librarians while accessing the grey collections. The training requirement of the librarians has also been projected.Keywords
