Finding Working Papers
Working papers are preliminary versions of research articles that have not yet been published or peer reviewed. They are produced to share ideas, obtain informal feedback, and provide access to the most recent data and research prior to publication. Working papers are often published by universities, research institutions, governmental bodies, NGOs, and professional organizations.
