Academic librarians in Sierra Leone are preoccupied with the problems of collection development amidst rising student enrolments, new curricula and decreasing budgets. Especially disheartening has been the growing need for information and the implications of the information technology revolution in academia. While such developments are of great concern there has been increasing awareness among these librarians about grey literature collection in their libraries. This article then is focused on the management of grey literature in academic libraries in Sierra Leone and its attendant problems.
