The purpose of the online survey seeks to arrive at a better understanding of digital publishing and grey literature, whereby the War in Ukraine 2022 serves as a use case. Survey respondents within GreyNet’s community of practice were asked to respond to ten questions. Five of the questions allowed for Yes/No responses and the other five were open-ended. The open-ended questions further allowed for the capture and/or point of access to both linked and persistent digital identifiers. In so doing, this identifies their role in publishing digital grey literature. The preliminary outcome of the survey shows that the 35 survey respondents were from 15 countries worldwide, that more than 15 grey literature document types were recorded, and that while a near third of the document types contained audio-visual material, only 11% contained research data. Formal analysis of the survey data including respondents’ comments will later appear published in full-text.
